Question: We should probably have both, but do you see this as a global option or a song-by-song based option?

Thanks, Matt.

Of course, I know I should be able to read treble clef lead sheets, but... shoulda, woulda, coulda... I'm just not as proficient as I need to be to feel confident on-the-fly reading. And BIAB provides me the crutch of transposition. So...

Definitely global. I hate having to mouseclick through bass clef selection, click into the Notation Options, transpose to "Concert (Bass Clef)", click yes to "Clef Split at G6?" dialog, and transpose -12 steps on Every Single Tune.

Song-by-song? I've spent several minutes trying to think of a strong use case for song-by-song. Not saying there isn't one, but this isn't as plain to me as the need for global prefs are.
