In Totem and GNOME Terminal, it's worse than that. I've found that
without 'dconf' in my profile, I cannot even modify the settings within
a single run of the program. For example, if I click on a checkbox in
the preferences, I see the state of the checkbox toggle and then
immediately revert back to its original setting within a small fraction
of a second.
