Thoroughly agree with that. The only piece of software I can think of that implements such a switch is the configuration dialog for XineUI. The first thing to do to make it useful is switch the experience level to "master of the known universe".

A similar thing is implemented more subtly throughout Windows though, there are "Advanced" tabs and buttons scattered thoughout the control panel dialogs. When helping non-technical family members with their computer problems, I've often found that the solution is an option within one of those tabs. They might have found it and solved the problem on their own but they see "Advanced" and think "that's not for me".
