I doubt that we can do this in the Right Way before the next release. Saving these preferences should be done by the core through a well- defined interface. That's why I added a dependency on bug #101604, which tracks the changes to the PDB and plug-in API.
this has got to be optional, i do not want plug-ins keeping settings accross sessions, at the moment they keep settings during a session and that's fine for me, but when i start up i expect the defaults personally.

This is something that can be done easily. In fact, I have just done it. I have increased the default quality to 85%, which seems to be a better default for most (?) users. I have just committed this tiny change to CVS. This should take care of the most annoying part of this problem, while the bigger issues can be taken care of later.
