App seems a little broad to me as well.

I've thought of Local configuration more on "ComponentConfiguration" that
has a scope that it supplies configuration for itself and all its child
components. if i write a larger application i might have one "local" configuration
for the Database part another for the gui part ..
both fall back to the "application" config and this falls back to "system" config

if i can use peak.config like this i'ld prefer
"component" configuration instead of "local"
"system" configuration instead of "global"

if there is only one "local" config, then App is ok.

cheers
