Correctly handle (escape) all valid strings as keys and values, including '=', '\n', '\', etc.
Support namespaces somehow
Here is my proposal for a concrete format since I am quite sure the current text k=v is completely broken (# stuff are just comments for explaining but should maybe not be part of the format):
some_key=some_val # a record in the root namespace
something\nwith\nnewlines=val\nwith\nnewlines # newlines separate different records, so must be escaped
key\=with\=equals=val=with\=quals # = must be escaped in the key, but in the value it's optional
key\\with\\backslash=val\\with\\backslash
# completely empty lines are ignored
/subns # lines beginning with '/' and no '=' enter a new namespace (path is always absolute to the root)
key_in_subns=val_in_subns
/subns/deeper # deeper nesting (again, path is absolute)
deepest_key=deepest_val
/weird\=ns\\\nwtf # namespace names use the same escaping as keys ...
\/justa_key=henlo # except that keys must always escape the first char if it is a slash
/ # return to the root namespace (do we want to allow multiple places for a single ns?)
key_in=root
Identify when the .sdb file is k=v in plaintext instead of a disk hashtable in cdb format
This format should be defined somehow in the Sdb instance and saved in the same format when dumping.
