Comment:

 XUL doesn't work well on mobile, so I implemented the mobile preferences
 in XHTML.

 Initially, I tried to make the code reusable across the mobile and
 desktop, however I was losing lot of time trying to make the Desktop
 version work. So this patchset has just the **mobile** implementation.
