This feature allows to overwrite preferences by filling .options as show below:

plugin-id/preference-key=<new value>

for example:

org.locationtech.udig.project/HIDE_RENDER_JOB=true

allows you to hide Render-Jobs shown in Progress-View (default is false).

@olsmn @sschulz92 I guess it would help to pre-configure uDig on a corporate level. I guess it might help if all possible preferences listed on preference user-doc page have at least the preference-key listed as well as the plugin-id where its hosted.

Great plus would be an example, especially for types such as colors and CRS's IDs.

What do you think?
