function Get-CallerPreference {
    <#
    .Synopsis
       Fetches "Preference" variable values from the caller's scope.
    .DESCRIPTION
       Script module functions do not automatically inherit their caller's variables, but they can be
       obtained through the $PSCmdlet variable in Advanced Functions. This function is a helper function
       for any script module Advanced Function; by passing in the values of $ExecutionContext.SessionState
       and $PSCmdlet, Get-CallerPreference will set the caller's preference variables locally.
    .PARAMETER Cmdlet
       The $PSCmdlet object from a script module Advanced Function.
    .PARAMETER SessionState
       The $ExecutionContext.SessionState object from a script module Advanced Function. This is how the
       Get-CallerPreference function sets variables in its callers' scope, even if that caller is in a different
       script module.
    .PARAMETER Name
       Optional array of parameter names to retrieve from the caller's scope. Default is to retrieve all
       Preference variables as defined in the about_Preference_Variables help file (as of PowerShell 4.0)
       This parameter may also specify names of variables that are not in the about_Preference_Variables
       help file, and the function will retrieve and set those as well.
    .EXAMPLE
       Get-CallerPreference -Cmdlet $PSCmdlet -SessionState $ExecutionContext.SessionState
 
       Imports the default PowerShell preference variables from the caller into the local scope.
    .EXAMPLE
       Get-CallerPreference -Cmdlet $PSCmdlet -SessionState $ExecutionContext.SessionState -Name 'ErrorActionPreference','SomeOtherVariable'
 
       Imports only the ErrorActionPreference and SomeOtherVariable variables into the local scope.
    .EXAMPLE
       'ErrorActionPreference','SomeOtherVariable' | Get-CallerPreference -Cmdlet $PSCmdlet -SessionState $ExecutionContext.SessionState
 
       Same as Example 2, but sends variable names to the Name parameter via pipeline input.
    .INPUTS
       String
    .OUTPUTS
       None. This function does not produce pipeline output.
