Throwing up a bunch of options out there and saying "Here, you configure it how you like" is a bad approach. People want to use software, not tinker with it or learn a bunch of things.
Sure, I understand what you are saying, but one thing I don't think you are not taking into account: I (and all new users) have no XYplorer habits and I don't want to develop any bad ones simply because I didn't know a certain option existed and I was unaware of a particular capability.

But, I am only speaking generically, I haven't combed through the INI file in detail and do not know all the options available.

EDITED
I edited this post for content - it sounded confrontational and in no way was this my intent.
