Comment (by arthuredelstein):
Another possibility that occurs to me is to hide the security slider when
we are in custom mode. Show a message that says
"Browser prefs have been changed to put Tor Browser in a nonstandard
security setting. This is dangerous because it helps to distinguish you
from other users."
And then a button that shows "Reset to X security", where X is Low, Medium
or High, depending on the current value of
"extensions.torbutton.security_slider". Once that button is pressed, the
security slider would re-appear in the correct setting.
I'm interested to hear opinions!
