Just a heads up to anyone using 3.1's new plist editor: beware that it
sometimes destroys some of your plist file's contents.  For example, my
plist (up to now always edited as text) has some comments within it, like:

	<!-- Rosetta does not support garbage collected applications. -->
	<key>LSRequiresNativeExecution</key>
	<true/>

If you use 3.1's GUI editor, it removes any comments you had in there!
