if i wanted to do something this admittedly awkward, would using
periods give me some benefit related to, i don't know, regex matching,

overthinking this? is anyone out there actually taking advantage of
multi-level subsections?
There is nothing wrong with having all of these
git config foo.a.b.c.key value
git config foo.a.b.c value
git config foo.a.b.key value
in a single configuration file, I think. There is nothing special there.
They're three different settings in two different (sub-)sections.
