Hi,

I think this is a good idea. You could raise an RFE if it has not been
raised before and let the developers know and decide.

May I add two variations. I think the options should be available from
within the package after installation. I also think a the ability to set up
customer default profiles would be good.

There are times when I want to turn things off, and times when I want them
on. It would be good to have an easier mechanism. For example I change
settings to suit myself. But I would also love to be able to change settings
back to standard for support and when raising issues.

Regards

Kelvin
