Not sure... my interface is a direct connection to the configuration subsystem.

In fact "config files", "configuration parameters" and "runtime
changes" are the same API internally. Olsrd2 was built from the start
with runtime config changes in mind.

so you just say "set/remove section X key Y to value Z"... its a bit
more complicated (adding/removing sections, named sections) but not
much more.
