It appears I may have had my .prefs file loaded when I ran
#prepareNewRelease, which sets many preferences but not all of them.
The ones it doesn't set were left to my preference.  I was surprised
to notice my scratch pad preference was on, it shouldn't be for the
release (actually it should!  but I won't go there..   :)   ).

I'll have to fix this... somehow.  Now we know why Bert wants to
support Preferences outOfTheBox.  The one use-case we're missing is,
we need to be able to _generate_ a #defaultValueTableForCurrentRelease
from current preference settings..
