Seems like for a new user with no .config/Terminal/terminalrc, toggling some settings via edit/preferences does not persist. A terminalrc is not created.
I could reproduce with Appearance display menubar, and most checkboxes in General
Seemed to work with Appearance display toolbar.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.create new user and log in
2.start terminal, toggle the scroll on output switch
3.exit and restart

was a new terminalrc created?
