It's not about being "at risk." All four INI files will be incompatible with newer versions of Sigil. And don't count on being able to paste utf-8 encoded text into an ascii document without potential problems. You may be alright with stuff like the keyboard shortcut sections, but any search & replace, or clip stuff involving entities will likely cause issues. Hell, much of the content from the default Saved Searches INI from 0.9.11/12 will be incompatible with newer versions if pasted in. It's not the file that's the problem it's the encoding of the file's contents.
