GConf extends the concept of a configuration registry. It provides
a simple way for applications and administrators to store data;
often GConf is used to store preferences for applications.
Some of the features of GConf are:
GConf provides:
* Documentation for each configuration key, so that administrators
can better modify the value.
* Notifications to interested applications when configuration data
is changed. The notification service works across networks,
affecting all login sessions for a single user.
* Proper locking so that configuration data doesn't get corrupted
when accessed by multiple applications at the same time.
