[GNC] I would like different Preference settings for different files, same user

[Jeff Abrahamson]

I'd happily +1 a bug report that it should be a book preference rather
than a user preference.  It makes no sense to me to force a user to see
the same fiscal year everywhere s/he looks but then to let multiple
users see the same book with different fiscal years.
