Ok, I'm going to be flamed for this, but I'm going to go ahead and ask.This implementation is a little inefficient but without using a random access binary db as Windows does (which I am not going to advocate) it's the best we can do.
This is a request to understand, not a suggestion (yet?).
Why not use a general purpose DB system? (postgresql, mysql, whatever) After all, the registry is just a tree shaped database. We can do that using standard SQL, and fall back to our current method if a proper DB is not found.
