NOTE:
this method maintains case unlike the ConfigParser module, unless this
class was initialized with the 'caseSensitive' keyword set to False.
All setting values are initially parsed as strings. However, If the
'convert' arg is True this method will do the following value
conversions:
* all Python numeric literals will be coverted from string to number
* The string 'None' will be converted to the Python value None
* The string 'True' will be converted to a Python truth value
* The string 'False' will be converted to a Python false value
* Any string starting with 'python:' will be treated as a Python literal
or expression that needs to be eval'd. This approach is useful for
declaring lists and dictionaries.
If a config section titled 'Globals' is present the options defined
under it will be treated as top-level settings.
