Oh, this is surprising coming from you. The GUI for gconf came after the CLI
tools.  Say "man -k gconf".

Also, using gconf's command line utility, which is quite powerful, you can
remove a tree of settings easily. Again, read the man page for it.

Now, if your distro doesn't include the CLI tools for it, that's their
fault, not gconf's.

Oh and do some more reading up on gconf. It is actually quite elegant, and
the only thing it has as a similarity to the Windows Registry is that it
holds configuration data. Everything else about it is far, far superior.

Probably more of the same. Gnome is _very_ configurable just not from a
command line. They chose the nearly-all-gui route a long time ago.
