WARequestHandler>>#preferenceAt: has no corresponding WARequestHandler>>#preferenceAt: ifAbsent:

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Unless I've missed something obvious I don't see a way of asking for the value 
of a configuration attribute which could be missing without enclosing the call 
in an exception handler:

[
    fileuploadPathRoot :=  self preferenceAt: #fileuploadPathRoot ]
    on: WAAttributeNotFound
    do: [ :err | "would be so much easier with an option of:
                     self preferenceAt: #fileuploadPathRoot ifAbsent: [ ]" ] ]

not a major issue but seems inconsistent with other key value lookups.
