The code won't look as clean, but I can add the backwards compatibility functionality.

Subject: [Wireshark-dev] Warnings when loading preferences
Hi.
After upgrading my local wireshark to latest trunk I get some warnings
from my preferences.
I suspect someone rewrote the preference format without handling /
converting old values?
The user should not loose the preferences when upgrading, just because
we changed the format.
