I don't actually change the setting. :-)
I like giving power to the end-user, and letting end-users make as many
decisions as possible. (One of my pet peeves is developers who could have
added a simple user-configurable option to do something that a user might
want to change, but who didn't. I like LOTS of configurable preferences.)
Of course if we are willing to distribute both sets of binaries, that's
fine with me, but I think that with the multiple language versions, the
light, full and hi-res versions, etc., it will be a mess.
