Preferences and Settings
Note: Make as little changes as necessary. Too much customization and options is not necessarily a good thing and quickly becomes confusing and off-putting to the user. Our tools are already extremely complex, and customization makes them harder to work on, harder to share knowledge, harder to design, etc...
Before adding a new setting, please consider if this could not be handled better by Personalization, or if a solution without settings is possible.
