If you keep your application’s settings in the Settings application on iPhone, your users have to go out of their way to change how something works.

I think different about this. I’d prefer it if Mac OS X would have the ability (and every mac-developer would do it that way) to store the settings in one centered Settings App. But not that you have to quit the app to change the settings but that in the app it self — like is now — still remains the menu point ‘Preferences’ which directly links to the settings specific to this app.
I think that would be a great way to simplify some things, and come over this problem. Just one button to change the settings inside the app but still the ability to change them via the Settings App.
