Yes, the User Preferences channel at least *should* be supported.  There are
still a bunch of features that aren't supported in the ajax preferences UI -
in particular, all the admin stuff that lets you set channels to be
immovable, etc.

I haven't been able to replicate this - any pointers?  One thing that might
be causing confusion is that there are now two input boxes for the tab name,
and it's not really very clear what each is supposed to do.  From looking at
the fields' names, it looks like the first controls the tab name, and the
second allows it to be targeted by name.  Maybe we should label these fields
a little better?

It generally works, but seems not to work for the preferences channel
specifically.  Looking at the stack trace, it appears that the code fails
because the preferences channel isn't actually in the channel registry XML
document.
