"Personally I would even remove that expert switch since currently the behavior
is potentially confusing. Imagine a user who checks the expert switch, plays
around with the options, gets confused and disables it. He will not even see
the things he changed from the default anymore although XCSoar honors the
changes he made.

Hi Andreas,
I see the problem you mention, however I believe expert switch or not you will
always have users, which might accidentially mess up the settings. Also, one
could think off different ways to achieve the same goal e.g. provide a "reset
to factory settings" button and probably many more ways. It's a question
of user interface philosophy - how much features and possibilities of
adjustments you would like to offer versus how safe / easy to use you would
like to make the XCS. However, I am not in the position to judge what the
majority users want, here I would trust the development team.
Personally, I love the expert switch or better the features it uncovers.
