If this is going to be changed, it means a very big radical change. So I very much doubt this will happen any time soon.

Moreover, there are reasons why it is the way it is. For starters, scripts are executed even before a user signs in. And they do not stop when a user signs out. So it makes not much sense to store script preferences per-user either.

Although it might have some benefits for some scripts, for others it is simply not logical to store them per-user.

If you want scripts to be executed depending on who signed in, you must alter the script in such a way that it checks upon who has signed in, and only executes its functions depending on that, like you requested here.
Thats the reason as to why i requested this, as the script i wanted to change was only little, but i still failed terribly in trying to get this to work at all, so it can be hard for some people :(

But i do understand the reasoning, thanks cookie (y)
