Comment # 4 on bug 12331 from 
If the preference is removed from the Lua dissector which then gets reloaded,
then the "-o" value can be discarded (there is no preference taking this value
anyway).

This bug is however about the case that that this value is also discarded when
the preference is still present after reloading. Something like seems to happen
for reloading Lua plugins:

1. Unload dissectors, remove preference (and the dirty "x" value set via "-o")
2. Load dissector, adding the "preftest.key" preference again. Initialize this
with the persisted preference value (which is not "x").
