GLOBAL SETTINGS

 Use the [default] stanza to define any global settings.
  * You can also define global settings outside of any stanza, at the top
    of the file.
  * Each conf file should have at most one default stanza. If there are
    multiple default stanzas, attributes are combined. In the case of
    multiple definitions of the same attribute, the last definition in the
    file wins.
  * If an attribute is defined at both the global level and in a specific
    stanza, the value in the specific stanza takes precedence.

[<view_name>:<viewstate_id>]

* Auto-generated persistence stanza label that corresponds to UI views
* The <view_name> is the URI name (not label) of the view to persist
* if <view_name> = "*", then this viewstate is considered to be 'global'
* The <viewstate_id> is the unique identifier assigned to this set of
  parameters
* <viewstate_id> = '_current' is a reserved name for normal view
  'sticky state'
* <viewstate_id> = '_empty' is a reserved name for no persistence,
  i.e., all defaults

<module_id>.<setting_name> = <string>
* The <module_id> is the runtime id of the UI module requesting persistence
* The <setting_name> is the setting designated by <module_id> to persist
