all user-settings should be manageable within config.json

Your use case

In my opinion the most options (especially: sendReadReceipts) in user settings should be preset in config.json.

The values should be:

• force_true: can't be disabled by user
• *true`: user can disable this option, this setting is enabled by default
• false: user can enable this option, this setting is disabled by default
• force_false: can't be enabled by user

Have you considered any alternatives?

To leave the existing boolean logic untouched, the force settings (settingForceDefaults) can be separated:

fe:

{
    "settingDefaults": {
      "breadcrumbs": true,
      "UIFeature.urlPreviews": false
    },
    "settingForceDefaults": {
      "UIFeature.feedback": false
    }
}

Currently each setting specifies the level it can be set at, so any settings that can't be set at the config level don't specify so when they're defined.
