Yes, that's correct. The new setting should also be documented in the docfile doc/config.rst and be added to the setup script (as Rouslan mentioned).
I read the files in the setup directory however I am not sure how to add my setting to the setup script. there seems to be some way the forms are automatically generated however I do not seem to be able to reverse engineer it.
You don't need to reverse engineer anything. In fact, you probably don't need to understand how the setup scripts work that much.
The procedure that I would take would be:
* Find a configuration variable that exists in the setup, but not in the user preferences. Let's take $cfg['RecodingEngine'] * grep for it (eg: git grep RecodingEngine) * Look in all files whose names sound like they have something to do with the configuration. * See where the RecodingEngine variable appears in these files * Copy + paste + edit * Check if it works
Hope this helps.
