The options that can be disabled (and enabled again) via 'Edit' > 'Smart Insert Mode' should be indicated on the 'Typing' preference page.
Created attachment 177389 [details] Patch Here is one way to do it. Not sure about the language in the message, but did look around as to how a 'Menu' item is referred to in these pages.
Thanks for the patch Rajesh. I'll have to verify whether indeed all preferences are affected by the Smart Insert mode. If so, we should probably simply rename the preference page.

Comment on attachment 177440 [details] Patch The patch is not good for two reasons: 1. The margin is wrong: if you look at other top sentences you'll see the difference. 2. One of the preferences is not yet controlled by the 'Smart Insert' setting. Either test them manually or look at the code. I would also change the wording a bit, e.g.: The preferences on this page are only considered if 'Edit' > 'Smart Insert Mode' is selected.
Created attachment 177913 [details] Fix Now 'Update Imports' is also controlled via 'Smart Insert Mode'. Also, modified the text and its margins.
Fixed missing copyright update and committed to HEAD. Available in builds >= N20100901-2000.
Changed message in HEAD to "... 'Edit > Smart Insert Mode' ...".
Verified in I20100914-0100. Changed the string to "The preferences on this page are only considered if 'Smart Insert Mode' is selected." and updated the F1 help. Filed bug 325242 to update the documentation for the 'Typing preference page'.
