Public bug reported:
This is more of an abstract request, and may not end up making sense in
the end. I just wanted to get my thoughts written down.
For some config files, it seems to make sense to me to split them up
into logical sections, For instance, with the Cloud Foundry package we
did, I attempted to split up their conf files (which are not stored in
/etc, nor marked as conffiles for that matter) into logical sections. A
better example might be the /etc/gnome/defaults.list file.
It is a list of mimetypes and the default application to be used when
opening them. There have been a few occasions with DVD player
companies, where they want to change the default handler for
dvd/vcd/mpeg2, etc... The default case of dotdee would work here, but
given the size of the file, it might be nice if dotdee could split it
into smaller files, i.e. 50-multimedia, 50-text, etc...
