We have a few duplicated 'getPref' helpers in the tree that are just wrapping nsIPrefBranch.get*Pref calls with a try/catch to return a default value instead of throwing. This is now supported by default since bug 1338306.

Attached patch PatchSplinter Review
For a change, I haven't created a script to do this for me. It's just a simple search & replace in Emacs with this rule:
getPref("\([^"]+\)",Services.prefs.\1(

And then the indent is fixed by hand, and the functions removed by hand.

Heh, it's amusing you don't need to adjust this indent.
