What you're doing is totally non-standard and even dangerous behavior. Let
the app maintain its own plist. Never never never create one the way you are
doing. To set default defaults (sorry about that expression), use "make new
default entry" as explained in the docs, or, if you want to be pure Cocoa /
bindings, use registerDefaults:. m.
