I'm just extending the excellent Open ID package for umbraco and I need
to add some configuration capabilities to it. What is the appropriate

I would prefer 2. or 3. but it depends on the security settings you need. Read/write access or so. If you could create a folder for the package you can propably be sure that you can write also a file to the folder. Also think about the users: if the user has to edit the file the user has to find it in an easy way => option 2.
