Does anyone see that buttons 'enable/disable all' being used often enough to 
justify that much space?  Am I wrong in thinking that people just pick and 
choose which conduits they'll actually use, rather than just blindly saying 
"Gimme all of 'em", and then turning around and saying "Nevermind, don't want 
any".  I guess I just don't see the purpose for dedicating that much screen 
real estate to something that will be so rarely used.

All IMNSHOABTWFU, of course :-)
