I looked at the stream parsing before I wrote the patch for the same
reason, and I agree that the stream parsing of course does not get a
single variable name at one place [*1*], so there is nothing that
can be shared.
[Footnote]
*1* Instead "[<section> "<subsection>"] <var> = <val>" is split and
each piece is assembled into section.subsection.var with its own
downcasing.
