save/load preferences for every dialog

Description
When recently processing many images with two different settings of "unsharp mask" filter, I missed the ability to save and restore the settings (also for consistent results). As I also work with Adobe's Photoshop Lightroom, where you can save almost any setting as a preference to re-apply, I really feel that GIMP is missing something in that area. I propose to add some framework that will allow any dialog to save and restore its parameters completely or in part to a named preference and later restore from there. (In Lightroom preferences work across modules, but that's a bit tricky for GIMP)
