Maybe the process of creating a personal Preference page and a
personal (customised) EditForm page can be made more explicit, to
discourage anyone from directly editing Site.EditForm and
Site.Preferences (these pages could have a separate edit lock on them
as well), and make it explicit that a cookie is set, so a simple
action link on Site.Site like
  [[{$Name}?setprefs=| Restore default site preferences]]
will unset the cookie and recover the situation.

The setting or unsetting of the setprefs cookie is not very obvious
now.
