Reset preferences and Import preferences does not work for custom entry types.

Steps to reproduce the reset issue:

  1. Customize entry types, e.g. by adding new entry types and/or by removing and/or adding fields
  2. Close/Start JabRef
  3. Watch preferences in JabRef preferences -> custom entry types can be found there -> ok
  4. Reset preferences
  5. Close/Start JabRef
  6. Watch preferences in JabRef preferences -> custom entry types can still be found there

Steps to reproduce the import issue:

  1. Customize entry types, e.g. by adding new entry types and/or by removing and/or adding fields
  2. Close/Start JabRef
  3. Export preferences
  4. Import preferences in JabRef installed on a different system (Win 7 as well in my case)
  5. Watch preferences in JabRef preferences -> imported custom entry types can not be found
