In these plans the client library is both a thin convenience layer over 
the D-BUS interface and responsible for loading/enforcing the schemas.  If 
I have this right, there are two client layers: raw configuration DBUS 
service, and validated configuration from a schema library.  Should these 
two layers be considered in separate specs?

My interest in a configuration system is to provide desktop integration 
for Java applications.  The desires are:
- Minimal amount of shared libraries in the client process.
- Single api for all ui desktops.
