+0 (I'm not a big fan of it though since it's overloading even more
our XWiki API) since we have it in XWiki.java but provided you fix the
param names:
* prefname --> preferenceName
* fallback_param --> fallbackPropertyName
Note: that what's even better is to use the new configuration module
which supports this use case in a much nicer way.

The signature would be :

fallback_param,
String default_value);
The underlaying method already exists in the non API XWiki.java (was
added for http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-2569).
What this method exactly do is : "Obtain a preference value for the
wiki, looking up first in the XWiki.XWikiPreferences document, then
fallbacking on a config parameter when the first lookup gives an empty
string, then returning the default value if the config parameter
returned itself an empty string."
My +1:

PS: I've created a JIRA for it: http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-3086
