Given the excessive complexity of the preferences dialog already, we  
should take every opportunity to remove things from prefs, and there  
should be a VERY high bar for adding anything to prefs. It's all too  
easy for open projects to grow massive preferences systems and  
configuration files because the outcome of most feature debates is to  
compromise and add a preference.

In this case, especially given that it already lives in Advanced, I  
strongly recommend we not move it to Preferences.
