Is it good that the debugging options aren't saved by default ?

I can see the point when you like to enabled some more detailed
debugging, test something without restarting SlimServer. In this
situation you don't have to remember to deactivate the detailed
debugging.

However, in another scenario where you like to debug something in
startup, you need to enable the debugging, remember to click the "Save
debugging settings for use at next application restart" option and
save. You can now restart and see the detailed debugging. But the thing
that I feel is going to be missed by people is that when you turn off
the debugging again, you need to check the "Save debugging settings for
use at next application restart" AGAIN before you save. 

I'm aware of that the current behaviour is exactly what the checkbox
title says, but I still feel that the risk with this is that there will
be a lot of people getting poor performance just becaused they missed to
check that checkbox after they solved an earlier problem.

This is related to the following bug report, which by the way probably
should be marked as either FIXED or changed so the "Save debugging
settings for use at next application restart" also survives a restart.

Possible solutions:
1. Change the default setting so the debugging options is always saved
by default.
2. Change the behaviour so when the checkbox has been enabled it
remains enabled after SqueezeCenter has been restarted.
