Description
Right now the only way to update the configuration or change config files is to quit and restart the app. It should be trivial in urwid to take the content in the existing config pane and save it to disk or reload an externally updated config via button push. I believe the current pane should also allow us to edit the file and make updates.

Research direction
Start by locating the existing urwid configuration pane and the code that loads the configuration at application startup. Run the app to understand the current pane behavior and identify how its content is represented. Done means the pane supports editing, saving changes to disk, and reloading externally changed configuration through UI controls.
