503753 - Separate send and receive options for sync

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

I would like to be able to have separate settings for send and receive in dialog where I chose which items to sync.

For example, I would like my computer at work to send its history to the server (and thus to other computers), but not to receive history from server (and again other computers).

The same is for the all computers I don't own - its somewhat hostile enviroment and many people would like to keep more privacy there. Also, it would take a bit time to get my 20+ MBs of history on slow connections.

Extra option would be to have not just receive, but receive only most frequently pages for history - thus I would quickly get what I need on most computers, and probably those pages are not something I want to keep away from others.

Reproducible: Always

WONTFIXing this, because open bugs that we don't plan to work on are of no use to anyone.
