Even a custom Configuration could register its objects in the
component registry manually in an @Inject method, like
GlobalConfiguration does. But I don't see any good reason for
injecting bits of the configuration instead of injecting the whole
thing and navigating the configuration tree in the component code.

So I'd go with your initial suggestion and remove it.
