New description:

 If Torbutton's internal test fails, the user is alerted every time
 Torbutton is toggled that the test failed.

 It might be useful to add a tickbox to the dialog (for advanced users) to
 dismiss the dialog completely
 until those settings change.. "Remember my answer and don't ask me again
 unless these settings change".
 A concomitant about:config tweak to set this state might also be handy.
