storing Activity parameters

[Mikus Grinbergs]

There has been discussion of the use of the Journal, versus other 
places, to store information associated with an Activity.

What I've noticed is that some Activities are now storing their 
parameters in the Journal.  For instance, I prefer to change the 
shape of the eyes in 'Speak'.  If I launch 'Speak' from the menu 
frame, it shows the "default" eye shape.  If I launch 'Speak' from 
the Journal, it shows the eye shape I specified earlier.

Personally, I would prefer having Activities store user-specified 
overrides someplace other than in the Journal.  Then when a new 
'instance' of the Activity gets invoked, it can come up looking the 
way the user likes it, not just with its "built-in" appearance.
