>Modern Unix settings systems do tend to have such global defaults, although part of that is that they often see themselves as part of a coherent system of programs (Gnome programs, KDE programs, etc) Don't those systems have some of aforementioned issues? E.g. is it possible to have several setups of a program utilizing gsettings?
