Do you mean obscure because a user must type about:settings to get to the settings? > If our concern is to avoid having to click on "Apply" or "Ok" we could find a > way to automatically apply any change done in the settings window. I may be a bit too old school but, when using auto-applied config dialogs, I never really trust the dialog so I end up thinking "this is not working because it didn't apply the settings". We should state very clearly that the settings are auto applied so that people like me can build up trust :P plus you don't want mobile users to go scrolling around searching for an Ok button.
