Replying to [comment:5 brade]:
> I'm not sure a slider will work. If a user chooses a slider position
during "first run" but later changes one of the underlying prefs (via
about:config), how would the slider reflect the partial settings?
Good question. How about having a slider with a few points on it, but also
a "custom" point? If the user chooses a point on the slider, it sets her
configuration to be what that point does. If she later changes some pref
to not match that point in the slider, then TorbrowserButton could notice
and change her slider setting to Custom. Now users have an easy way to say
"give me that level of protection please", but they can also do more
advanced things if they prefer.
> How should the choices be described in the UI?
In clear language that helps the user make the decision of course. ;) I
think we first need to figure out what the choices should do.
> Also, do you envision this prompt being displayed on its own "wizard"
panel? (e.g., before the Connect/Configure prompt)?
Hm. Is it too much to hope that they would both go on the same screen?
