A ++ on this, seems pretty flexible. But can it be auto-generated, altered
by the application without hassle?

I'll give this a ++ because of it's serialization abilities and a + for
it's style.

INI-Style is the only one I really, really hate. It's IMO less readable
and I still have mental scars from building parsers for it in BASIC.

If C::G can be serialized, I'd prefer it, if not, then I'd go for JSON.
