Create a 'special' preference to display the table, and name the .inc  
file after than. Then when processing that pref, build the string, and  
set the implicit preference using it  
($prefs->setValue('implicit_pref_name, '2|3|3|1|5|4');).

You can look at some of the IMP folder prefs for examples, among other things.
