Re: [PATCH 1/6] config: add helper function for parsing key names

... did you have any comment on
the "struct config_key" alternative I sent as a follow-up?

I did read it but I cannot say I did so very carefully.  My gut
reaction was that the "take the variable name and section name,
return the subsection name pointer and length, if there is any, and
the key" made it readable enough.  The proposed interface to make
and lend a copy to the caller does make it more readble, but I do
not know if that is worth doing.  Neutral-to-slightly-in-favor, I
would say.
