Re: positives/negatives of QSettings

If the GUI is written using Qt, note that the Qt library makes use of 
QSettings anyway. So you will be using QSettings whether you want it or not.

Also QSettings understand Qt types such as QRect or QString, so you may 
save the position of a window with minimal effort.

QSettings is reentrant.

Finally QSettings can safely be used from different processes to read 
and write to the same system locations.
