- I think that it should be possible to have a personal "script to mass-set your preferences the way you like them". However I am not a coder and know pretty much nothing about this (they look like things which could harm or break any time). So although I have the same problem you have, I'd rather keep the annoyance than look into a hacky solution. I know this doesn't help much, but thought I'd share anyway.
