vim.option.OptionDef
====================
  Describes a user-defined option. The name of each option is identified by the "key" property, inherited from the `ElementDescription`_ data object type. You can indicate the property's position in a hierarchy by using a dot-separated notation. The string preceding the first dot is the top of the hierarchy. The hierarchy descends to a new sublevel with each dot. For example, "Ethernet.NetworkConnection.Bridged".
