Also, I'm for keeping the logic of checking for and interpreting  
preferences on the client side, which would mean putting the "add  
subscription based on a preference" logic in the JavaScript. I don't  
really like the idea of building logic to interpret preferences into  
the server, but I'm definitely interested in hearing other thoughts  
on this.
