[Moziax] Hi, just a feature suggestion/request

[Javier Diaz]

Yes I agree with both of you, in fact i need both, preferences stored
on firefox subsystem and preferenes fetch from http remote service.

Since I plan to deploy mozphone jn call centers, i need the phones to
cofigure their preferences by themselves, so i only may need to store
the url from where the web configuration service resides, if it fails
it then shoul try to use the drfaults.

Apart from it, i need to implement a sort of kiosk mode, so stupid
call ceter agents won't modify anything and screw their configuratins.

I'll try to implement fist the dynmic http preferences feature, by
using ajax and the current preferences system
