[ale] AARG Firefox devs delete several important UI options

[Ron Frazier (ALE)]

If you can point me to a procedure where I can install ff 23 once, save the config and plugins to a memory stick, then import that into every other machine across windows and linux, I would be deeply appreciative.  The next best thing would be to set up linux and copy to all the linux systems and set up windows and copy to all the windows systems.  I doubt this would work across versions, but it would certainly save me time.

Sincerely,

Ron
