Management and storage of parameters / INI files.
This class provides a means to associate string names to int/double/string/StringList values. It allows for parameter hierarchies and to save/load the data as XML. Hierarchy levels are separated from each other by colons.
Example: 'common:file_options:default_file_open_path = /share/'
Each parameter and section has a description. Newline characters in the description are possible.
Each parameter can be annotated with an arbitrary number of tags. Tags must not contain comma characters!
E.g. the advanced tag indicates if this parameter is shown to all users or in advanced mode only.
