I guess, to be fair, someone should double-check that my point above is enough to decide against adding a *full* sentence here (instead of a colorized fragment). I think the main problem is that sentence fragment coloring is a big localization problem, like Mark said. If we want to add color/style changes to anything more than a single word, it needs to be at the full sentence level. I think that's Mark's main concern, and on reflection, it might actually be the biggest issue with this text, perhaps more so than my issue if we can find a middle ground for it. So, if we can think of a way to add a full sentence to the "Configure" option that would help instruct a potential non-censored but still heavilly persecuted and surveilled userbase (One example: Citizen journalists reporting on the Mexican Drug war) to click Configure instead of "Connect to the public Tor network", *without* also freaking out everybody else who safely uses the public Tor network, then we have a solution. Otherwise, I think it should be left as-is? -- Mike Perry
