gee, thanks for silently ignoring reasonable user-set values too rather than clamping only bogus values to the app default. I'd hate it if I'd have wasted time testing for side-effects of a bunch of values for this by tweaking the user configuration! That totally didn't happen though! At all! Because I checked the direct effect of setting the pref rather than just assuming it works! Honest!

:|
note: with this code you can set any unreasonable value you like and use it for your entire session. the next session though if your value is unreasonable, you'll get a default :).

I wouldn't have minded doing the check for unreasonable values in UpdatePrefs, but I don't really care.
