Yeah, most of TOML looks good, but the .INI style [table] and even wierder the [[table-array]] thing seems like they were trying to hammer a square peg into a round hole for the sake of having config files that look like INIs.

Backwards-compatibility with ini is in my opinion one of the more powerful aspects of TOML which help adoption. Kinda like how UTF8 is ASCII-backcompatible.
