> What on earth is going on with your app(s) that requires preferences to be deleted? If, after all these years of your being a very accomplished developer, your apps aren’t robust enough to deal with unusable or inconsistent values in prefs — or, more to the point, put the prefs into such a state to begin with — then I humbly suggest you treat that as a major bug, and fix it.
Ha! Tell that to Apple. There is more than one Apple support note where one of the troubleshooting steps is to trash your preferences. An example off the top of my head:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3893?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
In this case it is such a common thing to do that there is a third party application to save, trash, and restore those specific preferences for you.
