Bug 20117: new rc2 sets a backdrop, and preferences for same

[Richmond Mathewson]

In English:

Each to his own taste, but this is not a choice.
I want a short, alcoholic French drink to settle my stomach.

In Lallans (Scots):

Ilka mon mun dree his ain wierd, but its nae his ain juist nou,
an Ahm ettlin fae sic tae settle masen.

I do not stretch very far with German, I'm afraid.
