Normally, when we develop we try to give a homogeneous behavior to our applications for the user.

This is a uncomfortable when the default behavior of our application does not match those of the Telerik controls because it becomes verbose and repetitive. I look at my code and constantly repeat configurations for the different controls.

For example, in 99% times I use:

<TelerikGrid EditMode="GridEditMode.Inline" /> 
or 
<GridColumn ShowFilterCellButtons="false" TextAlign="ColumnTextAlign.Center" />

{
  "TelerikGrid.EditMode": "GridEditMode.Inline",
  "GridColumn.ShowFilterCellButtons": false,
  "GridColumn.TextAlign": "ColumnTextAlign.Center"
}

<GridCommandColumn Width="90px">
	<div class="text-center">
		<GridCommandButton Command="Edit"   Icon="@SvgIcon.Pencil" />
		<GridCommandButton Command="Delete" Icon="@SvgIcon.Trash" />
		<GridCommandButton Command="Save"   Icon="@SvgIcon.Save" ShowInEdit="true" />
		<GridCommandButton Command="Cancel" Icon="@SvgIcon.Cancel" ShowInEdit="true" />
	</div>
</GridCommandColumn>

Changing "Delete" icon in the whole application seems trivial, but think that you could modify the default behavior homogeneously in the whole application or in part of it if the configuration file had a hierarchical behavior, changing one properpty in one place.

I think it would be a very useful functionality to give homogeneity to an application in a very effective way, without breaking changes and making a less verbose and repetitive code.
