What is preferences? Is overwrite mode? Is column-mode for selection? I 
think some people here are taking a much too traditional approach to 
it. Right now, I don't see any reason for having that window, except to 
make things slower. You only make the mistake of looking for the prefs 
window ONCE. You can now quicker change settings with hotkeys etc. MANY 
times in the future.
