Surely mixer settings should be stored at logout, as the *user's*
preferences, and restored at login. Rather than be a system thing.
Otherwise everyone's always going to get the last person's settings,
which would be just as annoying.
At first glance, this looks good. But it gets a bit more complicated
then that when you have more then one user. I think a better way may
be to save/restore the settings only if you are the "console owner"
when you log in/out. You should also have a system default that
things are set to when the "console owner" logs out. Maybe this
should be an enhancement request for console.perms?
