Every time I have to install or re-install VLC on existing or new machine then each and every time I have to do all setting like setting up global hot keys etc. It would be really nice if VLC can also support cloud based synchronization of user specific settings. If hosting cost of such centralized system is an issue then VLC can integrate with Google Drive API to save settings on Google Drive in just the way like many Android Apps do.
For User Accounts Management OATH can be used (OWIN) and for saving custom vlc data Google Drive can be used.
