This is missing the ability to add new presets, see release/scripts/startup/bl_operators/presets.py and preset_add_operator

Was looking into the comments about adding presets, I don't know if this is possible with the complexity of modifiers.
Comment Actions
perhaps we could leave this ability for now, the presets serve as examples and starting points

I thought about a solution for this, presets could be loaded from and saved to a blend file, if it is worth to add the ability for use to add presets I could try out this idea

According to the module wiki, Render & Cycles is responsible for Freestyle nowadays.
The most problematic thing I see is that adding a presets adds a new linestyle data-block. Presets should only modify settings, not add data - at least if we follow existing conventions. Couldn't the preset just modify the current data-block instead?

Right, adding new datablocks is not the way other presets work, that should be avoided.
Comment Actions
Yes, but there's problem if user already changed settings or even chose a preset,
then choosing a preset will not give desired preset results ...
as the presets don't override all settings, and it would be redundant if it did IMHO

Switching between presets does not work well with this change.
- More and more modifiers are added, it should clear existing ones (and I guess re-add the default Samplig modifier).
- All preset should modify the same properties like chaining, use_same_object, alpha, ... . Where they are not set now they should set the default value.

Indeed this is the issue I tried to solve before by creating a new data block, will try to reset settings instead
