Isnt there FuseFS for that? It can show the gconf registry as a file tree, allowing you to use tools like recursive diff etc. https://metacpan.org/release/LSIM/GConf-FS-0.01

Something flexible like FuseFS is sorely missing on windows, the stuff google drive had to do creating a new letter drive is pretty gnarly.

Interesting, I hadn't seen that. Did Google Drive go with the virtual drive letter thing mainly for backwards compatibility to older windows?
