I personally consider it a failure if a program of mine has a preference
dialog. It's one thing to automatically attach non-critical metadata to
files that provide hints for how a user would like the file to be
viewed. Or to have ones program respect the global UI theme. It's an
entirely different thing to have overt configuration anywhere in a
program.

Yep.
