As far as I'm concerned, anything which looks intuitive enough (e.g. ini-style) and not overly complicated is fine. The details of the syntax aren't really important as long as they make sense, and don't get in the way.

This is a variant of "as simple as possible and required but no simpler", which I'm sure is what we're all aiming for. The problem is that it's fiendishly difficult ;-)
