I'm not arguing that this is the best way, but as a data point, here's what I do.
I use buildout to generate app.ini, as well as other config files, including for uwsgi and supervisord, from templates (using collective.recipe.template.) I have several top-level buildout config files, all of which specialize a common basic configuration: one for deployment, one for staging, one for development. All of the twiddly bits (API keys, paths, logging config, etc.) are in one place (the top-level buildout config file), and it is quite flexible (e.g. uwsgi for deployment, pserve for development.)
