Details

We should have a pref to turn off the annoying theme switching dialog, until we 
can get all the skinability bugs worked out.  Haven't decided yet if we should 
have a UI for this or not.
I want to try to do this for 6.01.

the dialog is bug 49759, btw.

We'd need a checkbox in the warning dialog to set the pref, in order for it to
be at all discoverable.  I don't see any point in having it in the prefs UI though.
Yeah.  But users need to be sure of what they're doing before they turn off the 
dialog, since they're turning off dataloss warnings.  I'm hoping skin switching 
will be robust enough by 6.5 that this warning isn't needed, anyways.

I'm hoping the bug is fixed, too. Here's wording for the pref, should you need it:

"Don't show this warning again"
This warning dialog doesn't exist right now...
Blake: Can we close this bug ?

Yes, for now anyways.

Blake, how is theme switching going to become robust again if it isn't even a 
debug pref now?
Never mind, I guess that's covered by bug 88466.
