Yes. That's why we don't want to have NORMAL vs LOW or HIGH vs MAXIMUM. It's an 
extra question that most users don't need to worry about. The current code just 
does LOW or HIGH (with some extra options). Users with particular needs should 
use the old, more detailed wizard (custom settings button).

Probably we should warn users about opennet at some point. We probably do that 
already?
