I think the action should be disabled by default and then maybe have "Turn off" as \
default option for the ComboBox, I think if you actually enable the action you want \
it to turn it off usually. Disabled option and "Follow user's preferences" are \
basically the same but you might want to only enable/disable Bluetooth while leaving \
everything else unchanged; or enable WiFI only on AC and WWAN only on Battery.
The options should also have an icon, I recognize the blue Bluetooth icon better than \
the text. I would prefer if you split the keywords thing from the actual feature, so \
reviewing becomes easier.
Also, can you please include a screenshot for usability, they don't read code ;)
