Surprise, we already have that since pretty much ten years :-)One of the problems with this though is it only supports strings and ints/bools, not the rest of what BMessages can contain, requiring conversion code. Another option is to serialize BMessage to text, as ThemeManager does, but the code in there is not really robust. The format used comes from the format Dano0 used when PrintToStream()ing messages, and is actually quite alike to the driver setting syntax, maybe we could have a common framework doing both ?

+1 text to BMessage sounds good
