 Replying to [comment:2 arma]:

 non-standardness and why it's scary?

 `about:support` has `Important Modified Preferences`, which could probably
 be tailored for this sort of application.

 On a related note, insert rant about how going back to stock standard
 everything requires re-installing the entire browser, instead of just
 obliterating the profile directory here.
