AFAIK there is no direct way to delete an entry of an array or dictionary key (something not on the top-level) in a preferences file using the command line.

I believe plistbuddy can do it, and there's always awk if it's in XML format.


Not that I'm endorsing manipulation of loginwindow.plist in any way, but it can be done on safer files when necessary.
