At the moment the "Remotecontrol Plugin" (which allows setting the
configuration over telnet/http) uses the same syntax I use for command
line parsing.

There is a command called set... and it gets something like this for a
new parameter:

"--set interface[eth0]."

This adds an empty configuration section of type interface with the name eth0.
