If you remember, time ago I prepared a patch to allow locking of this  
preferences and avoid all loading but was rejected. Now days, I think  
a better approach it will be to make the pref object load the  
preference for multiply users at once. This will minimize queries not  
just in Ansel (all list with from_addr or fullname etc). So Ansel will  
be able to first retrieve usernames of listed galleries and then load  
all pref values at once  (just one query instead of 9 queries in a  
default gallery list).
