Summary:  When caching phpgwinfo, prefs get lost 

Original Submission:  As it says. Cache phpgwinfo, php sessions, non-persistant 
db connection. 

Go try and set preferences in any app (even settings). You wont be able to.

Im in the process of debugging it, but it seems this has to do with the way the 
prefs class handles the cached phpgwinfo array in line 547 (or arround, look at 

if (($type == 'user' || !$type) && 
$GLOBALS['phpgw_info']['server']['cache_phpgw_info'] && $this->account_id == 
$GLOBALS['phpgw_info']['user']['account_id'])

)

I think the read repository function borks the new preference data.
Iva managed to pin it down this way:

1.- Set new preferences to any app, make it break with an echo something

2.- Check out the database, preferences are fine there

3.- Go to home.php or even preferences index

4.- Check the db again, preferences are gone.

So, gimme a hand pls. Im trying to port AM to 0.16 preferences and cant go in 
if i dont fix this. Im gonna try and do it myself though.
