I'm just curious, what would preferences have anything to do with loading
the Nuke project?  It just seems very unrelated.  File level "preferences"
related to a project are under root which is saved in the nuke file.  If I
was an artist inheriting someone else project I would go batty if I had to
use another artists custom prefs.  Also with evolving pipelines old prefs
could actually break the ability to open a file in some cases.
