Does it? To my knowledge env-update relies on nothing else but bash and
python, note that this it a statically compiled version of python which
doesn't need any system libs. Maybe I'm overlooking something though.

How could you possible unify the style of all the configuration files?
This means that you'd have to track all the config formats of all
libraries and applications together with their options and write a
unified wrapper interface on top of them. I really can't see the benefit
of that, and I don't dare to imagine the sheer nightmare of trying to
maintain and update this.
