well,
first thing that MSDN brings on:

The registry is a system-defined database that applications and system 
components use to store and retrieve configuration data.

So I think as long as you write configuration data that would be a proper 
use of the registry)
Only somewhere I remember I read that you better NOT store icons or anything 
graphical in the registry (binary values)

Let's define our own standarts of things in registry, since Microsoft 
doesn't care... =)
