Where is this page? I've just entered this thread (back from holidays).

I know XML... Why <entry> inside an inner <config_item name = "Config_Item2" >
and not inside an outer <config_item name= "Config_Item1" >. This is
inconsistent and looks superfluous.
And by the way: XML requires an end tag for the inner config_item which you have
forgotten in your example.

> <key> Name </key>

So your proposal looks like (???)
<configuration>
<config_item name="Config_Item1">
<entry>
<Key> Key </Key>
<value> Value </value>
</entry>
<config_item name="Config_Item2">
<entry>
<key> Key </key>
<value> Value </value>
</entry>
</config_item>
</config_item>
</configuration>
