There's a slight problem here, you might really not want db_file to be set _at all_.
Case in point, I use a database-plugin instead which would be incongruent if db_file is forcibly serialized into the config.

Perhaps we could add some kind of warning mechanism that alerts the user that either db_file or database-plugin must be configured?
