Item9381: Can't edit preferences in a group topic

1. Create a group topic using the WikiGroups UI
2. Visit the group topic
3. More topic actions -> Edit settings
4. Kablooie

It's because the settings added have no type (Local or Set) defined.

The code in Manage.pm should default to Set type.

Instead of fixing an already wrong feature, please forget this and fix Item2389: (New WikiGroups UI fails to remove multiple users from group)

er no, you're letting your current worry cloud a real issue.

given the spec in Func::Mets:

    PREFERENCE => {
        require => [qw( name value )],
        other   => [qw( type )],
    }

the Manage.pm code cannot assume that the field->{type} is defined. I don't know why Crawford wrote that the type is optional, but as it is, we need to test for that.

I added the type, and had to make it optional for the usual (tm)wiki hysterical reasons.
