I'm sorry James, I missed your question.  I've uploaded a couple screenshots of
what I'm thinking (although I'm thinking this may require a change in the
gadgets extension first on second thought).

Currently, the "Editing" section of the gadgets tab on enwp looks like:
  
[[commons:File:Special_Preferences_mw-prefsection-gadgets_%28current%29.png]]

What I'm proposing, is that when VisualEditor is active for the user, it should
look like:
  
[[commons:File:Special_Preferences_mw-prefsection-gadgets_%28proposed%29.png]]

With the options for things like dot's highlighter and wikiEd grayed out so
they can't be clicked (and defaulted to off).
