The configuration is a very important extension of basic Meta class. It is basically a mutable meta which incorporates external observers. It is also important that while simple Meta knows its children knows its children, but could be attached freely to any ancestor, configuration has one designated ancestor that is notified than configuration is changed.


**Note** that putting elements or values to configuration follows the same naming convention as getting from it. Meaning putting to `some_name.something` will actually create or put to the node `some_name` if it exists. Otherwise, new node is created.
