As I understand it, the Gnome config stuff (Gconf) implies a substratum
of GTK libraries communicating over DBus. That's what I mean by "Gnome
environment". Whether the actual configuration app is part of the Gnome
distro isn't important, but it does need to use the libraries. So in
theory one could have a QT-based app that interfaced to GTK, or even a
version of the KDE System Settings panel that fully understood Gconf,
but for the moment we don't.
