So expose that in a library. Most conf files are one of a few common formats, and it shouldn't really be a problem to reparse on change. The client app wouldn't have to know anything about the file, even, just get settings back in some standard format. That library seems like a weekend project for someone, with format plugins and other goodies to follow.
