I don't agree that they are spread out and hidden... well, they are 
spread out but they arein the menus where they logically belong. For 
example, font setting is in the view menu, stuff that determines how 
the editor reacts to your input is in the behaviour menu, and stuff 
relating to syntax is also in the view menu etc. Putting it all in a 
prefs window is not much better: It takes longer time to change, and 
many people will check the menus first to see if it is not considered 
"deep" enough to end up in the prefs, I think.
