Yes, Preferences should be limited to providing some kind of registration
machinery and basic UI and IO services rather than holding the state of all
possible packages.

Maybe this can even be done with some kind of <#annotation: >
(name is less-controversial than pragma).
This way, if Preferences is in the image, it interprets the annotations;
if not, then no harm with Undeclared or something...
