I won't argue against that.  But I suggest that the best conceptual
organization for this would have these two levels:

1. A control to enable or disable the functionality.

2. Various ways to specify preference of back end for various parts of it.

I suggest that #1 be simple, as lots of people will want to enable the
functionality, and that we put the complexity into #2 since it would
be used by more sophisticated users to make more sophisticated
choices.
