That data is managed via GSettings, which on Linux uses dconf as back-end. I have no idea how dconf manages its internal database unfortunately. It's tied into dbus but that's a black box for me.

You can dump the the contents via dconf or GSettings tools and then import this on the new machine. As I'm not near a computer right now, I can't offer much more than a pointer in the right direction.
