Should be able to. The way it's organized you can edit anything tree-like. 
The difficulty I've been stuck on is making it handle special
circumstances; for example, the distinction between systemwide settings
and user settings, or features specific to one window manager/panel, or
"special" menus like the icewm "Program" menu. I'm sure this can be made
to work but I haven't yet. 

I can check it in to CVS, to be played with. Only worry I have is that it
doesn't have a proper gnome-common type directory/build setup, so I might
try to fix that first.
