Description
QSettings with IniFormat being used with keys like 'general/entry1' do
write all items into a '%General' section.
This is what the doc explains as a way to ensure no keys without a group may
get overwritten.
This seems to be a little messed up:
1. QSettings and keys using the group 'general' can create multiple sections - this happens with previous qt version too.
2. Since 5.0, these sections fail to be read (@see the attached example)
