Not for awhile.  These display-specific preferences are now stored  
per-browser (since a user may use more than 1 browser, and may have  
different display limitations on each).

The default is in js/dimpcore.js (the prefs property in the DimpCore  
object).  You can either edit the default in that file or you can do  
something like dynamically add the value when loading the page via a  
hook.
