Re: Bring back configurability in expert mode

[Stephen Smoogen <smoogen lanl gov>]

As a former Red Hat Support person.. I can say that we used to spend

in expert mode because the new customer wanted to see everything. (Of
course the reasons we spent so much time tracking things down was
because they rarely told us they did it in expert mode.)
