Now with v20 xbmcaddon.setsetting is not working when there is no settings.xml in user_data (when there is no setting configured by user practically).
I have also noticed that now Settings is a new instance with setting related methods instead of those methods directly being member xbmcaddon.
I can't stop but asking, why? Most of the member methods of xbmcaddon is already setting related so why there is a new settings class?

This is not a bug report but, sometimes i really am not understanding why python api is changed so frequently. This obviously has an effort impact on addons whenever a new version of kodi is released. Unless there is a good reason no one would like to change the python api, this is also a burden for kodi team as well.
