Weave Sync by default syncs preferences such as those accessible from the Firefox UI. Add-ons can leverage preference sync to have user-set add-on preferences synced so that changes to add-on settings will propagate to other synced clients.
A preference will be synced if a corresponding prefixed-preference is set to true. The prefix is "extensions.weave.prefs.sync.", so if |extensions.weave.prefs.sync.browser.startup.page| is |true|, the |browser.starup.page| will be synced. An easy way to set these preferences to |true| is to add the entry to the default preferences for the add-on.
