Hi @severo, I guess this issue requests not only to be able to access the configuration name (by using `inspect.get_dataset_config_names`), but the configuration itself as well (I mean you use the name to get the configuration afterwards, maybe using `builder_cls.builder_configs`), is this right? Yes, maybe the issue could be reformulated. As a user, I want to avoid having to manage special cases:
- I want to be able to get the names of a dataset's configs, and use them in the rest of the API (get the data, get the split names, etc).
- I don't want to have to manage datasets with named configs (`glue`) differently from datasets without named configs (`acronym_identification`, `Check/region_1`)
**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**

Currently, some datasets have a configuration, while others don't. It would be simpler for the user to always have configuration names to refer to

**Describe the solution you'd like**

In that sense inspect.get_dataset_config_names should always return at least one configuration name, be it `default` or `Check___region_1` (for community datasets like `Check/region_1`).
