Now I'm looking for a library, which behaves like config parser, but
with one minor difference.
The write() mehtod should keep existing comments.
Assuming that you have not overlooked anything, I would just subclass
ConfigParser with an altered write method.
It would require a lot more than that. It would entail changing
the reading as well so that it preserved the comments as well as
the order of sections & keys, and a way of storing those
associated comments in sequence. I looked into it a fair while
back and it was a LOT more work than I cared to do for minimal
gain. I wimped out and just documented it with "If you use the
ability to (re)write a configuration file, it will not keep any
comments or ordering from any original sources."
