That is still not useful information. Developers aren't going
to add options for the sake of adding options. "Users want
more options? I guess I better hunt through my program to see
what I can make configurable." That's absurd.

We need to know what users want to change, and (importantly)
why they want to change it. Aggregate statistics on this, even
if accurate and significant, are not actionable.
