What's the best way to add separators to the settings?

I see that some apps have some kind of separator in their settings. What's the best way to add such separator?
I'll need multiple separators and of course my goal is to add as few bytes to the code as possible (I know it'll add some for each).

I do it by adding read only string property with label --- but it look bad and consumes memory

So for that for each separator I need to add a property? Like this:

<property id="s1" type="string"></property>
<property id="s2" type="string"></property>

</setting>
...

</setting>

yes, I haven't found other way.

Yeah, the 2 ways I could come up with are:
a)
----- separator with string + property i.e: "User 1" ------
Name
Age
----- separator with string + property i.e: "User 2" ------
Name
Age

or b)
---- "User 1 Name" with special string, but no additional property ----
Age
---- "user 2 Name" with special string, but no additional property ----
Age

I am tempted to post a feature-request for a string-only label, but considering the 10+ bugs just I opened in the past months related to settings, settings-groups, array-settings probably it's useless...
