This looks like a good idea.

For the fixme, It shouldn't apply per document settings here, they are
not in the prefs so they won't have changed.  Just leave it out.

I'm not Nick, but I would suggest leaving it until after release,
thats not far away, and then as soon as it is committed Nick will have
built a new version :)
