Actually, that's a bug in my opinion. Even though swfdec is a GNOME
project, and GNOME is notorious for applying configuration changes
immediately, this goes too far. The plugin area is not a configuration
dialog. It's a player. Users don't expect their actions to be
remembered.
I think everybody agrees that the current implementation is wrong. We
shouldn't be trying to preserve a wrong behavior.
I think your previous patch was better.
