This comment just proves that you haven't tried programming with
GConf. Also, I digged up this for you:

  http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gconf-list/2001-August/msg00069.html

Read Havoc's reply and understand that GConf is hotter than a freshly
brewed pot of tea. If that isn't enough, read the documentation on
developer.gnome.org. Try programming with GConf.

The only thing bad about GConf is that the XML backend doesn't put
newlines in the XML files, making them almost unreadable. Still, that
is just a layout issue. I'm getting sick and tired of people
complaining about GConf being like that Redmond monster, please,
please stop spreading that nonsense.
