Currently most of the configuration settings are kept in ~/.config/xfce4 
except for xfce4-session. Most of these config files are using xml. What 
if we designed a helper framework (by that I read framework where you 
can save settings) using xml. Here we can have a daemon running in the 
back (like gconf) or just make a library that writes/reads those xml 
files, problem would be file locks.
