Reading/Web/Preference Persistence For Anonymous Users/Decision Record

What are your constraints?
Many times we have implicit constraints, based on time, resources, performance, security and other aspects. This is a place to make them explicit and share with your team and stakeholders.

Important Questions
Fill out any questions you should answer or follow up on before making a decision. Record those answers here.

Decision
The table captures your decision as well as important information documentation, context, and support materials. Fill this in after you list out options on the following pages.

Technical Forum Chair review
This is to be filled out by the Technical Forum Chairs after the decision is made. These questions are designed to help the chairs give feedback to the decision team to help them make an informed decision.

What are your options?
On the following pages, list at least three options to address your problem. Try to keep the description clear and use language that can be easily understood. The first option should always be the “nothing” option. This helps you properly evaluate the pros/cons/costs of the status quo as you evaluate potential solutions. If you need to dig deeper into options, technology, etc... link to them in the references.

Prototype:
While prototyping and trying out different approaches, and from gathering technical feedback, we would include in core:

Client-side preferences inline script

 * It allows users to enable or disable of features/preferences without logging in or creating an account.
 * It uses existing classes on the document element to avoid adding extra HTML or JavaScript.

Client-side preferences API
That provides a simple API to set and get preferences.
