Description

The wiki page https://github.com/dbeaver/dbeaver/wiki/How-to-set-a-variable-if-dbeaver.ini-is-read-only says to look up the directory based upon Help -> Installation Information -> Configuration -> org.osgi.framework.storage.

However, as you can see in that screenshot, this spits out a directory inside install-data which is nested inside a version-specific folder. I tried this on both Windows and Linux and while it doesn't print a directory inside .eclipse now (it's in the proper workspace location: https://github.com/dbeaver/dbeaver/wiki/Workspace-location)

I'm sure you can understand why I'd rather not put a config file into a version-specific directory - can we just use the workspace6 directory for config.ini?

As another note - and maybe for another issue - it would be nice if there was a documentation page - https://github.com/dbeaver/dbeaver/wiki/Configuration-files-in-DBeaver would fit well - which mentioned the other files that you can use to configure - most notably workspace6/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.core.runtime./.settings/org.jkiss.dbeaver.core.prefs - ideally this can be contrasted w/ the config.ini - I believe there are some fields that overlap and others that do not? For example I couldn't get config.ini to recognize the ui.show.tip.of.the.day.on.startup config but I believe you can put -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore into the eclipse configs and into config.ini (where you omit the -D).

Note that https://github.com/dbeaver/dbeaver/wiki/Configuration-files-in-DBeaver doesn't even mention config.ini which I consider to be a gap that should be fixed.

My use case is to persist these configs into a dotfiles repo so I can easily restore my preferences.
