[Bf-funboard] More than one default.blend

[Bol Bib]

Hotmail glitched again



I would like to support this or any form of this request.





The GSOC concerning UI improvements had a feature that seperates saving over Settings and Default blends. This might/must be taken into account as well,perhaps.





Maybe you could save different User preference scripts or something,rather then default blends? and keymaps as well
