The LDM registry doesn't have the concept of a reserved namespace. If you add 
parameters that no program requests, then they will be ignored by the registry

But the command line 'regutil' tool honors them:

parsley:~$ regutil -s "Testing" /sdowdy/comment
parsley:~$ regutil /sdowdy
/sdowdy/comment : Testing

--or--

parsley:~$ xmllint --xpath //sdowdy ~/etc/registry.xml
<sdowdy>
    <comment>Testing</comment>
  </sdowdy>parsley:~$

So, i figured registry.xml could be leveraged as a singular general-purpose 
data store for LDM-related operations.
