Please enter the accented character that failed to convert and its TeX=20=

This bug is fixed now. See the log message for 
Info-Bibdesk__Upgraded_.plist.

Unfortunately, because I'm not a smart person, the log message was 
initially empty so CIA and the commit list will never get it. I had to 
add the log in afterward. Duh.

To summarize, some default values for preference keys were erased in 
the recent renaming of pref panes. To be clear: the key,value pairs in 
the info.plist entries for the pref panes are used to initialize the 
defaults system. They are necessary.

They're also one thing I like about the onmipreferences system instead 
of the standard way, since the standard way makes you register your 
defaults in code, and in my case, that was a ton of code. That change 
was from before sourceforge.
