Which options are ones that one would want to be the same for all
graphs, or at least to start out the same for all graphs, but that
different users might want different settings for?

Which options are rarely changed so that hardcoded defaults are OK?

Which options are ones that would probably be changed for *every* graph,
or are otherwise not worth saving ("Graph type", for example, is
selected from the menu)?
