Solstice::PreferenceService - Allows for the permanent storage of user preferences.

    Only the subclasses of this object should be used, WebQ::PreferenceService 
    for example.

    use Solstice::PreferenceService;
    my $pref_service = new Solstice::PreferenceService;

    my $nickname = $pref_service->getPreference('nick');
    $pref_service->setPreference('nick', 'Magic Tom');

    The "solstice" database has a table named "Preference" that contains the
    definitions of the preference tags AKA magic strings e.g. 'nick'.

    All preferences are automatically set and got for the current user.
