Well it does say "for experts only". Basically what it does is you download a
file, and you're supposed to have a program on your computer that takes that
file and helps you edit it.
For more info about what the option does, see
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:External_editors
We could potentially add a comment in the file explaining what the deal with it
is, and how to stop it from happening. (the downloaded file is an ini file, i
think that format supports comments of some sort)
Do you have some sort of text that would be clearer for the option text is
special:preferences.
