there's an existing bug on this somewhere, I'd LOVE if someone could find it. The idea is that instead of storing stuff in all.js, we'd store it in prefs.properties and then use XPCOM's nsPersistentProperties to read it, rather than going through JS, which really has a large overhead. And yeah yeah, I know there will be all sorts of pref migration issues, that will all be covered here. Its possible that the inital version will just be #ifdefs
