The test "value is not None" in line 620 (of the new version) could be just "value" and get a little more value from less code. I don't think I've ever run across a sample .ini-style file that used unspecified values, though it's frequently done in "flat" configuration files. Have you come across an existing configuration format that uses the [section] markers and unspecified values, or is this really a new use-case?
