Bug Description
The current configuration system, insofar as it exists at all, is somewhat suboptimal.
It should probably be replaced by a global config that allows setting things like default script path, etc. and includes sections for plugins. At the very least, using a proper config parser (maybe ConfigParser? does Twisted have something better?) rather than line.split('=', 1) would make the whole thing less fragile.

I think this bug is still valid with the upcoming framework/API changes, however the description needs to be updated. We should probably discuss the functionality for this at length.
