Preferences are not static, there are always new ones and some may become obsolete. Who should do it?

Hidden they are not. I am a user and if i miss anything, first i look into the *.js in greprefs/ and defaults/pref/. If this is not successful, i look into the source. Others may use http://mxr.mozilla.org/ instead. Hm, i just notice, that greprefs/ is not longer there in my SM 2.1. Hopefully only only a bug and not intention.
