Then again, might as well use what works 100% of the time.. so for me,
for the time being, I like this style of using a `user_pref' call
along with a `clear_pref' that can be commented and uncommented for
testing.

It raises the question of how prefs should be documented (for wiki,
and faqs).  Since my personal preference is to keep all my settings in
my rc files, where I have complete control over the source, and it's
easier to do backups, I could see the usefulness of using this
user_pref/clear_pref pair style in various documentation.
