The editor settings involve a lot of duplication. For example, Tab Size, Display the Text Limit Line, Font Size, etc etc. When I setup NB for the first time, I have to set certain things in the Plain, Java, Properties, XML and JSP editors to have consistency. There should be a global settings that I only need to set once and can override for specific editors. If a setting would not apply to a specific editor it can be overridden.
