does the new table REPLACE the systempreference one or is it added ?

Unless i'm missing something, the accessor to preferences is centralized
in C4::Context, and I don't see the relation to C4::Circulation.

I agree that the switch to Koha namespace is a valid reason, but we must
plan & define it clearly & with as many details as possible. Probably a
topic for the hackfest next month...
