I think you have to be very careful there. In another thread I referenced to the fact that Thunderbird currently has an advanced configuration editor where you can change almost *everything*. IMO that is one of the things that is actually flawed in Thunderbird. I don't disagree that we should expose some settings in an "advanced" preference pane, but I believe we should be hesitant to do so.
