Conf seems to be user specific i.e. values set by one OS user seems to be not accessible by others regardless of permissions. #191

First, thanks for the wonderful open source work.

Secondly, the following observation currently only applies to Linux. This is because I have not tested or tried to reproduce this behavior on other OSes yet.

I have been using Conf and recently I had a use case in which I had to start a node.js app on OS boot. On Linux, you usually do a systemctl service. In my use case, I wanted my node.js app to start for all users therefore, systemctl has to start the service as a root user. The config values set by the other user via the app were no longer accessible to the app when it was run by root. This means that this is not a permissions related issue and perhaps a planned user separation implemented by Conf?

Is there a way to get around this and have conf set values system-wide?
