I'm looking into fixing that.

This is tied up with a known buffer-overrun bug in NS4 - 
we've added some workarounds that should ameliorate it for b2.

These are actually browser preferences, not user preferences. For 
example, the prefs I set at home on my nice hi-res laptop will 
be different than those I have set on my work machine for things 
like textarea size preferences. We are specifically *not* trying
to do 'user' preferences.
