[dev] how to repair the conf object?

Maybe I was using the incorrect approach to use the nag api.

Everything is fine if I do:

global $registry;
try{
$tasks = $registry->tasks->listTasks();
} catch (Exception $e) {
echo _("tasks access denied");
}
print_r($tasks);

Is this the way to do it?
And the other one was just ... BS?
