just to take the inheritance problem even further? :=)
unfortunate choice or quote, i'd say. ;)

no, seriously, i sort of like that idea. it takes the logic of setup and
overriding to a simple shell script.

about the above problem, do you think we should simply ignore it and
drop support for "hot switching"? gnome seems to do without, anyway.
and the fine granularity (e.g., number formats, etc.). drop too?
