31 : dj 1.9 From the 2.1 plan: <em>&quot;Provide user preferences. It should be possible to store user preferences
32 : dj 1.1 that are not specific to a workspace separate from the workspace, so that
33 :     they can be used in any workspace. [Platform Core, Platform UI] [Themes: User

35 : dj 1.9 <p>
36 :     From the 3.0 plan:
37 :     <em>
38 :     &quot;The way that Eclipse deals with preferences should be improved. The workbench
39 :     presentation of preferences generally uses a component-oriented hierarchy,
40 :     which is not always the best choice for users. The UI should present
41 :     preferences in such a way that users can readily discover them. Some
42 :     preference settings have scopes (e.g., workspace-wide vs. per project). The UI
43 :     should help the user to visualize these scopes. For team-wide uniformity, some
44 :     preferences settings (e.g., compiler options) need to be shared (or imposed)
45 :     across teams. The UI should also facilitate this. [Platform Core; Platform UI;
