what is needed is a some sort of crawler that associates settings with applications
then a nice GUI wrapper for that crawler and konsave (or something like it) so the user can see a list of their installed software and be able to save ALL of it’s settings by checking a single box.
same with restoring those settings.
this GUI abstraction layer should be package format agnostic as well so it does not matter to the user whether the package was installed as native, flatpak, snap or perhaps even appimage.
i’m imagining something akin to how flatseal manages flatpak permissions, but for settings/preferences.
