When you change exclusive settings in the snapshot, it reverts it back to normal if you change from (I'll use this as an example) 13w03a to 1.4.7 then back to 13w03a. Like if you change Unfocused Height to say 20px and then you go to 1.4 then back to the snapshot it will be 90px. Although this doesn't matter much to me due to me having separate clients for both the snapshot and recommended versions but I can see some people getting annoyed from this. My friends get annoyed by this so I think this would be an good fix. If you use the same code to generate an server.dat, you can do that with these special settings I'm pretty sure.
Thanks for reading and I hope you agree with me that this needs to be fixed. 🙂

Is this still a concern in the current Minecraft version? If so, please update the affected versions in order to best aid Mojang ensuring bugs are still valid in the latest releases/pre-releases.
This is not technically a bug, but could be fixed.
When the game loads, unrecognized settings are reset / removed (in options.txt). When you load the snapshot back up, it recreates them with the default settings. This has always happened in the past, however I don't know wether its intended behavior or not.
