        3. The term "preference" is used in other applications.
           When looking for an
           alternative to "option" I picked that as a suggestion.
           Another term used is
           "setting" (which has a few disadvantages).

    Is the term "preference" generally used nowadays?  Is that the term
    everyone would expect?

To clarify: I didn't mean to suggest that it was the main term used (I'm not
sure). I only meant that it is used in some other applications.
