This could be used for any cloud integration like OneDrive or Google drive and is independent of %APPDATA% and would never be lost unless you intentionally delete it.

Yep, I do something similar, so this makes sense to me. I've always kinda tried to keep CHIRP sort of "stateful" without a need for a prefs dialog, and things like this are hard to expose without one. But, there are a number of sort of "hidden" features that you can enable directly in the config, and this seems like a reasonable thing to add to that list:

So I'll work on that and add it to the list above when it's available.

Thanks!
