Yeah, I wanted to give this a proper look, but never carved out the
time, short answer is that what we want to happen is roughly
a) remove that implicit store of settings in the writer code where it
happens as a side effect and get it called explicitly in some store
options configuration e.g.
in PrintDialog::storeToSettings have a maPController->storeUIOptions();
call and that maPController fundamentally comes from 
new SfxPrinterController in sfx2/source/view/viewprn.cxx and takes a
SfxViewShell as an argument so it should be possible somewhere around
there to add a virtual storeUIOptions to the vcl::PrinterController,
implement it in SfxPrinterController and propagate (here its the usual
frustrating haze of "shells") the task to yet-another app-specific
virtual store method and move the writer implicit-save code into that
method instead.
