I've implemented a hierarchical settings framework with a couple
additional features like the ability to store a collection of settings
as an array or a map, and some syntactical sugar to make common
operations easy to type.
You can find it here: http://kboard.sourceforge.net/settings.
I would volunteer to merge these features into KConfig if you people
like my approach, but there could be some issues with the backend (as
my class is currently bound to an XML representation of the
configuration structure).
