As a counterpoint, I would like to request that this either not take priority, or that it be an option in the configure stage. I want fast framerates as the priority.

Well what do you define as eye candy?
If people don't want eye candy then why do we have ground textures in FlightGear? They are just wasting framerates.
IMHO there are two kinds of eye candy. The ones that are necessary for learning (snow/rain, fog) and the once that don't add anything but nice views (dust clouds on touchdown and such).
So far I've mostly concentrated on the first type by adding better textures and sunset/sunrise effects.
