Summary: ConfigParser.write(): linebreak handling

Initial Comment:
ConfigParser.read() accepts line rfc822-like line
continuations:

[xxx]
line: this line is longer than my editor
   likes it

ConfigParser.write() does not handle these linebreaks
and produces:

[xxx]
line: this line is longer than my editor
likes it

which can not be read by ConfigParser.read().
This can be fixed easily by adding a
"value.replace('\n', '\n\t')" in ConfigParser.py.

This seems like a valid approach.  One of the pythoners want to comment?
