Hey Jiang,
So, it seems like I'm a bit of an idiot. Sorry.
However, I was almost there. Here are the docs.
http://code.google.com/apis/gadgets/docs/legacy/fundamentals.html#SetPrefs
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<Module>
<ModulePrefs
title="Set Userprefs Demo">
<Require feature="setprefs" />
</ModulePrefs>
As you'll see, you still need to call the require feature, or the library
won't load.
Apologies for confusing the issue, and thanks to everyone on this list who
told me where I went wrong ; )
