Perhaps I need to rephrase: to what extent is the choice of JSON, in the
present discussion, necessary or incidental ?  If what you're trying to
do has to use JSON with QSettings, then it's necessary.  If JSON just
looked, at first sight, like it would solve your primary problem, then
it's incidental and can be replaced by something compatible.
