This has gotten a bit out of hand...  We are absolutely not going to 
automate draw distance.

This got started as a speculative discussion that forked off of the draw 
distance slider in which I asked whether or not it might be possible to 
create a system that _if_explicitly_requested_, some smart software 
could look at what factors in a users configuration might be changed to 
improve FPS and advise the user on changes that might improve 
performance.   While DD might be one such parameter, the system I asked 
about would not be an interesting contribution at all if it were the 
only factor, and I never envisioned a system that would actually change 
anything automatically - it would inform and educate the user as to what 
settings changes might be made to improve performance.
