They make accessing simple configuration values simpler.

Due to the restrictions of YamlObject class, ugly type casting dance is
needed.  Also, GlobalConfiguration::option must check for the key
presence before retrieving the value using operator[] because if the key
is not present then YamlObject::empty may be returned as a regular value.
