I think it would be best if it was possible to hook the function for config load or overwrite whole class for config so that it's possible to create an extension which could change whole storage for configuration.
In that case we wouldn't need to change anything, the standard version would use a file, and tweaked version would have a gui.

One might wonder if a GUI-page could overwrite one's configuration file, even accidentally. A backup would be nice in such a case. But it does create a new level of uncertainty for administrators.
