At that time I suggested it would probably be easier and less risky, to start of with a tools project, that allows you to apply a setting to all our properties. Saves you a lot of the effort of figuring out how to 'position' this in the UI, and what to do when people want exceptions to global defaults etc..
Kunal has a rough start on such a tool at http://tools.wmflabs.org/globalprefs/. The source looks to be a https://github.com/legoktm/globalprefs. Maybe some folks would like to collaborate on expanding that tool to make a nicer working proof of concept?
