 I think it is just a questions of put some work. Both tracker-config
and tracker-configuration can write the tracker.cfg file!


 At some point, we must put some order in the configuration options. We
must choose what options are available, which ones requires to restart
the daemon, and which ones can change in runtime.

 My idea is that trackerd should load the options from the config file,
and write the options when it finish (for example). In the middle, TP
can read/write the values of the options using a DBus Interface. The
daemon could also throw a signal saying "Some option have changed!" and
TP can ask again the values of the options.

 Definetly, TP shouldn't read/write directly the cfg file.

Ivan
