I've recently submitted a patch thats writes the current settings into a
.cfg
file:

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=700463&group_id=44306&atid=439120

The temporary .cfg file could be a parameter of settings_save_config(). In
this case (file parameter is not empty), the keyboard screens doesnt appear.
This would be an easy modification.
