For next Pd-extended release, the same set of libraries that have been loading automatically at start-up would continue to be loaded as usual. It is just that there wouldn't be a GUI for people to modify that list of libraries that are loaded at startup. I think most Pd-extended users don't use the startup libs preference already, so I am guessing most people wouldn't notice.

I am thinking for the next release of Pd-extended, that the preferences panels for loading libs and adding paths should be removed. [import] and [declare] cover all it can do in a better way, and people who really want to have libs and paths loaded globally on start-up can use either a manually written preferences file or the command line flags.
I could see maybe keeping the paths GUI, but I don't see any good reasons to keep the startup libs GUI. Anyone have objections?
