Typically, a new module first has to prove itself in the real world before being accepted into the standard library, especially for a module replacing existing functionality. It's usually easier to accept additions/improvements to existing modules (i.e. patches) than replacement modules.
I suggest you put the module (along with docs and the test suite) up on the web and make an announcement on python-announce. Then try to generate community support.
In any case, if you'd like to write a PEP for it, please read through PEP 1 and PEP 2.
IMO more powerful alternative to ConfigParser is ZConfig (http://www.zope.org/Members/fdrake/zconfig/) -- Dmitry Vasiliev (dima at hlabs.spb.ru) http://hlabs.spb.ru
