The problem with a "list all variables" page is that it's VERY easy to get lazy about settings after that, and you end up with all of the useful or cool stuff there and only there, with no decent inline documentation. It becomes the Windows Registry very very quickly. :-) An admin/advanced page, if we include one, should still be a well-built and well-documented page, just listing less-used stuff. Developers shouldn't have an "easy way out" of just throwing something into the advanced screen and forgetting about it. On Tuesday 06 September 2005 11:24 am, Bèr Kessels wrote:
What about a /admin/advanced which is a single page, listing ALL variables, similar to about:config in moz/ff.

I am + 1 for an advanced settings tab for these less used options.
The form API could theoretically be used to add an interface_level property to each element, and just not show elements the user might be confused by.
