I was rather thinking about listing used settings by name, with each such name being a link to standard user preferences page with this one setting highlighted.
I haven't seen such thing before and this makes me thing it is not useful, but maybe I am wrong :-).
I am just thinking of a way to make "this page can be customized" link useful, to address Marc's concern:
Should there be a visual clue on each panel where the panel behavior is influenced by some user pref? [...] users will have to be very familiar with the user prefs panel to understand which panel each setting influences.
If such link is to be added, it would have to show up on every page.
It could simply be one link + icon that tells the user that this page is influenced by some user preference, without mentionning which one.
Ok, but if we are already monitoring all preference reads to find out whether user has customized anything, we can as well add a jQuery message window with a simple list. Then at least user will get feedback whether the things he changed actually apply to current page.
One more thing I just thought about - if pmadb is unavailable, we can use user's DOM storage [1] (IE 8, FF 3.6, Safari 4, Chrome 4, Opera 10.50).
