I agree with this statement. That said, the registry is better
than /etc/config (/etc/sysconfig?), because:

  1. It has a well-defined name space.
  2. It has a schema for well-formedness. That is not the same
     as consistency, but it is a step in the right direction.

I take it that what you want is some form of schema-like specification?
