Note that you simply can't "ask for the plist" anymore because it's not 
necessarily been written to yet with the latest changes. I don't know when it 
gets written to (maybe practically speaking it always is by the time you get to 
it) but the truly correct way to get a representation of what's in user 
defaults is to use $ defaults export <domain>

Just worth mentioning…
