Hi,
While syncing user preferences, a BackingStoreException is not expected, since the current user should be able to read/write such preferences to the persistent storage (unlike system preferences, where current user needs to have admin rights). This fix aims at allowing a user preference node to sync any changes to the persistent storage.

Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~khazra/7118100/jdk8/webrev.00/
This webrev had been earlier code-reviewed for 7u4(but never committed) [1]. There are no additional changes required for jdk8.
Thanks, Kurchi
