Or a revamped QSettings if we can make it.
Besides, the whole point is not to access the same file format, but to access
the same settings. This requires searching for the same keys, accepting the
same values.
A good example is the locale configuration. On GNOME, it's configured somewhere
in GConf or DConf. In KDE, it's configured in $KDEHOME/share/config/kdeglobals.
On MeeGo, I have no clue where it's supposed to be configured, given the
different implementations between netbook and the others.
Of course, Qt doesn't integrate with any of those. The only way to configuyre
the locale in Qt is via the common denominator: the POSIX configuration (by
setting LANG and the LC_* variables). Unfortunately, none of the environments
set LANG to a file containing their settings[*], so the common denominator is
actually often the wrong config.
Now, if we can get an agreement on where the setting should be (blessed by
XDG), then we'll be happy to read it from QtCore.
[*] Qt doesn't read custom locale files yet, but we might just write that code
if MeeGo uses it. This doesn't require XDG blessing.
