No, there isn't.  There were the occasional discussions on the
developer's ML since the virtual /proc/registry filesystem has been
introduced, but to no avail yet.  The problem is to find a unique *and*
posixy way to identify the type of a registry value when writing it,
since, basically, every write access to a value also determines its
type.
