+ * GSettings supports change notification.  The primary mechanism to

+ * optionally watch for changes on only a single key by using a signal
+ * detail.  Signals are only guaranteed to be emitted for a given key
+ * after you have read the value of that key while a signal handler was
+ * connected for that key.  Signals may or may not be emitted in the
+ * case that the key "changed" to the value that you had previously
+ * read.  Signals may be reported in additional cases as well and the
+ * "changed" signal should really be treated as "may have changed".

  * Similar to GConf, the default values in GSettings schemas can be
