I don't think we'll ever do this. Prefs should just stick. If they don't, it's a bug and we'll work with Apple to find solutions in future releases. File Helper settings are a totally different issue. The ideal solution is for Apple to add UI for managing file helper settings rather than having client apps do it.

A suggestion for one of the future revisions - you might want to consider a mechanism that lets the use know if their setting of prefs (like helper apps) was successful or not. Apparently, since doing so is a crapshoot depending on what apps are currently open, it would be helpful to provide the user with feedback if their settings changes took hold.
