IMHO your rejection is stupid. User input should always be validated. At least a ValueError should be raised if add_section() is called with a string containing ']\x00\n['. As this will always create a broken configuration. Otherwise ConfigParser cannot be used to write new config files without having deeper knowledge about the implementation.
