As others have said, we don't save these at the moment and possibly could in some way.  I think Teravus knows more about 
this decision (if he's not insanely busy).

This is interesting because my shapes and wearables appear to save correctly between startups of my MySQL standalone 
server.  However, others have reported problems in this area.  You might want to add to
