Reactivating security warnings in Firefox 4.0

Hello all,

Tools -> Options -> Security used to have an option to select which security warnings would be shown. I'd like to deactivate some of them temporarily, but I have not been able to find a way to reactivate them in Firefox 4.0 (specifically "You are about to submit information which is not encrypted") since upgrading

I don't want to deactivate them without being confident that I can reactivate them, and until that happens, some things are taking a lot longer to finish than is necessary

Help please?

You can reset the security.warn* prefs on the about:config page if they are bold (user set) via the right-click context menu.

Typing "about:config" got me there. Thanks!

However, I must respectfully ask why Mozilla felt the need to hide such things?

That was a consequence of this bug:
