 In [changeset:"12412" 12412]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="12412"
 Support Forums: Check intent before updating user preferences.

 The bbPress profile page may be triggered by various scenarios that do not
 have the full context of a profile edit included.

 By introducing a hidden input field in the form areas which need a "yes or
 no" type response, indicated by checkboxes, we can ensure that these are
 not unintentionally cleared or set from profile modifications made without
 the options even being presented to the user.

 Props zoonini.
 Fixes #6509.
