I don't know if it is the best way to handle config data, but I tend to 
store the value of all config options in a single structure/record.  No 
fancy tricks are actually required, as there is no need to enforce the 
existence of a single object and when a component requires config data it is 
simply passed to it as needed.

The only trick I believe may be required is to put in place 
callbacks/observer pattern to signal any change to any config option, which 
would make it easier to propagate config changes.
