I'll have to agree with you there. It's starting to annoy me how in an effort to make userfriendly and GNOME HIG (Human Interface Guideline) compliant, more and more of its advanced options are disappearing from the preferences dialogs and can only be changed messing with gconf. Galeon 2 (galeon-snapshot) is a prime example of this nonsense. In my opinion, if GNOME keeps heading this way, it's going to start alienating some of its more intermediate to advanced users.
