i agree for the most part.  i don't think we should be changing
icons or tweaking default settings just because most of us like
them, except in cases where those default settings don't make sense
or are just confusing on openbsd.

i've had this setting disabled for a long time because the scrolling
message was annoying but i never noticed until now that it removed
those puzzle-piece placeholders.

has anyone actually filed a mozilla bug to have these two things
separated so the message can be disabled (as i think it should be on
openbsd since our plugins are installed differently) but the
placeholders can be left?
