Comment(by nickm):

 I think those options are going to need more explanation.

 I vote for something like:
 {{{
   _
  |_| Option description

     Long option description. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur
 adipiscing elit.
     Ut sed libero at justo mollis lobortis id nec neque. Donec mattis
 vulputate condimentum. In
     sollicitudin lorem ac purus aliquam aliquet. Aliquam hendrerit mollis
 dolor, non fringilla

   _
  |_| nunc eleifend vitae.

     Cum sociis natoque penatibus et magnis dis parturient montes, nascetur
 ridiculus mus.
     Sed iaculis, eros ac dapibus dictum, erat elit tempor sem, accumsan
 accumsan mi enim
     bibendum quam. Nulla facilisi. Donec libero eros, pretium vel feugiat
 non, mattis in neque.
 ...
 }}}

 For each option, we should explain what it does, why you want to leave it
 on, under what circumstances (if any) you might want to disable it, and
 what the risks of turning it off might be.

 Also, if possible, we should use the same verb for all the options if we
 mean the same thing.  "Block", "prevent", "resist", and "disable" all mean
 approximately but not exactly the same thing -- if we're trying to get
 across a subtle gradation of meaning there, it's probably too subtle.  If
 we're trying to communicate the same thing, though, we should probably use
 the same verb.
