What is 'preferences'?

I found out 'preference' when I was trying to understand how XMPP.enableContentDocument() works. Somehow, SPS uses preferences to get the XUL content panel element to be passed to the function mentioned, as 1 of its parameter.

So, preferences may be, but not restricted to:
- a way to store values universally (cross-pages?)
- Storing shared data in preferences
