Comment (by deryni):

 I can certainly add a link to the FAQ entry for this in the output file
 though I'm not really sure who that would help, as I've seen it most
 people don't bother writing out the settings to the file and even less
 actually look at it once they do. I'm less convinced it belongs in the
 configuration dialog itself. I also see absolutely nothing wrong with
 people editing a text file to make setting changes, but that might just be
 me showing my 'age' as it were. The GTK+ documentation on user-editing the
 gtkrc files is certainly lacking and could certainly be improved to make
 this easier on people, but I don't much see that happening as the GTK+
 crowd seems to be a largely GNOME (and DE in general) crowd who think that
 users are more-or-less incurably stupid.
