Why? There's not very many preferences. Mostly I want to keep track of grid arrangements. Realistically, there's only really 3 grids that are big enough to bother with, but I might do them all for consistancy. I doubt I'd ever get more than 10 users. Even the really big paratransit companies don't have more than a handful of dispatchers.
