Good idea. Serializing preferences to XML may be a better solution. Embedded HSQLDB proved to be too unreliable. And I guess we can use XSLT transforms to version the preferences.

Using Cayenne for preferences is great for a few reasons (1) you can do real queries and (2) updates are incremental. I guess if we go XML, we'll have to manually partition the preferences into smaller manageable chunks and use XPath. Oh well...
