Yes, that I can do :)

The File Properties are settings that are for this particular book only. The Edit 
Preferences are global settings which will apply to all books you would create. Many 
users only have one book, so for them there's no real difference.

I realize this is confusing for some people. Thinking about it we should perhaps 
move the menu option File->Properties to the Edit menu right below or above the 
Preferences option and call it "Book Properties" ?
