Hi Matt, you are right, currently there are classes to save and load so called "navigation tools" which include the tool configuration file of the tracker, a surface representation, a human readable name, etc.. This functionality is included into the UI of the mitk workbench by the view "NavigationToolManager" of the tracking plugin.
For tracker configurations (I assume you mean connection settings such as the serial port) there is no configuration file in MITK at the moment. However, this information is stored persistent in the UI by means of Qt settings. But it makes totally sense to have configuration files. I think implementation would be straight-forward. As we are planning to better integrate the PLUS toolkit by using our new OpenIGTLink module and there is such a tracker configuration file format in PLUS, does it probably make sense to use the same format in MITK? Some of the MITK IGT developpers are planning to join the NAMIC Winter Project Week (http://www.na-mic.org/Wiki/index.php/2016_Winter_Project_Week) to work on such topics. We'll keep that idea in mind. If you have any further ideas please let us know!
