Just... no[1]. For most of the example settings either environment variables, a secure service, or enough environment variables to connect to a service, or other environment pki in place for such communications.

Stop putting your settings in config files for service applications... if it's something that runs on a desktop, sure. If it's a server app, don't do it.
