I agree with Patricia, if you can't think of what the thing actually 
does in the context of your program, it's a rather large red flag.

However, perhaps we could suggest what it might be doing.  What you're 
describing sounds like something I've actually used.  It's an 
ApplicationContext.  Mostly I use this so I can decouple the real 
property handler (probably what I would call Configuration) from the one 
I use while testing, etc.

But in general I've found that defining an ApplicationContext with 
smaller objects like Configuration, Persistence, Gui, etc. makes it easy 
to decouple large modules in the code, as well as makes it convenient on 
the programmer, since there's only one object to pass around and keep 
track of, and it has your entire context in it.
