Interesting. So one one hand, you're saying "we're using the a
Desktop-file format because there's so many parsers / API for it", yet
with this move you break compatibility with a lot of them (in
particular GKeyFile [1]). Embrace and extend? Anyway, it's a bit too
clever... and, without getting all emotional... a bit inconsiderate
for my taste. Not that I'm super-invested in this (I'm not planning to
parse any of these files myself, anyway), but, any chance you can
figure out a better way to do this? Thanks!

[1] : While GKeyFile will load/save such files correctly (because it
uses a list to store key/value pairs and jumps through a lot of hoops
to preserve comments etc), its API doesn't really cater for it. I
haven't reviewed other ini-file/.desktop-file APIs but I guess it's
the same.
