I really hate this format for such things, but I can't offer a better alternative other than moving everything over to yaml or json (or python import like we do with constants.py). If this is not data that needs to be shared by the other pieces sharing the core-service.conf, and it's some service that isn't getting used elsewhere, our current pattern is to stick it in something like constants.py.
For this case though, that may not be an option so I'm not trying to block it, just curious if alternatives like that have been considered.
