Yes, I get that.
I already change multiple settings with PrefBar, but I need to toggle each
checkbox or button instead of "sliding". And sometimes I need to add or
modify buttons. (Changes made with PrefBar also takes effect before any
pages are loaded.)
There is a different user experience between a slider and the row of
checkboxes that PrefBar offers. In time, the users will decide which is
better.
But I find PrefBar useful, and have not found anything suspicious about
it.
I would welcome your, brade or Mikes opinion on this addon, after it has
been examined. It may not replace the slider, but it could be added to the
recommended list.
