You're right that the 3d settings are broadly a superset of the 2d 
settings.  There are some problems where the mapping isn't exact, e.g. 
the textures in the 3d settings, these generally effect the displayed 
colours and so the 2d and 3d settings can have different colour values 
which produce similar colours.

Although having a single setting for both 2d and 3d designs would be 
nice separate settings don't really cause any problems and offer more 
flexibility.
