During the installation of a module, can we read the setting of the "objectQualifier" in the web.config
and modify a xml file that belong to the module that is being installed?

To do this type of install/upgrade process you would want to implement the IUpgradable interface inside of your module.  From there it can call out and get the information and update the document as needed.

Thank you Mitch,

I'll take a look at the IUpgradable interface.
Do you know a free module that does it?

I'm trying to use the Entity Framework data model
in order to develop a test module.

As you probably know, the metadata is saved in three
xml files: .csdl, .ssdl, .msl.
Maybe we could change these files so that
we add the "objectQualifier" before the module will run.

Please email me (webmaster at adefwebserver.com) if you are able to get this to work. Trying to get Entity Framework to work with DNN is a project I have been trying to find the time to investigate.

I thought it could be easy to do
but I was  wrong, the names of the tables
are also written down in the code that is generated
by the VS designer.

Maybe at runtime:
