If drizzled uses boost to parse its ini file, then why can't

A dependency on Boost appears to be unwanted for the client lib.
I don't get why. Still the question remains - if Boost is unwanted for
the client, what additional benefit does the parser provide to
drizzled. It would make more sense that all components use one and the
same parser to read the same config file. (Ie, if client can't use
Boost, then drizzled should use the home grown one.)
For a client library we want as little dependencies as possible. In
fact I can't see why a library will need a .ini file. In my opinion the
client app should have the .ini parser and use function/method calls to
setup the library.
Drizzle client apps should and will use the Boost .ini parser.
Kind Regards
