>From a user's point of view, I find that picking up my settings and
taking them to a new computer is extremely tiresome, as there are too
many folders to remember to zip up. XFCE is also a PITA as it writes its
current configuration on shutdown, so I can't copy my settings while
XFCE is running. This isn't a biggie for me (I write all my code with
vim), but it is annoying because I always forget to kill X beforehand,

Anyway, back on-topic, a centralised location for storing everything
would be great. But... wasn't that supposed to be gconf?
