It is functional, and will be in 0.74b3.

P.S. The red frame blinks...

Maybe if you changed the buttons with the green so that they where in the style of the GUI buttons currently used they'd look 1000x prettier

Na, they look fine. They aren't supposed to look
like the current buttons, nor is "pretty" the main
goal. They bright colors and blinking are meant
to grab the user's attention.

I expect that most users will quickly learn to use
either the Never or Always choices. If that's the
case, then these buttons will not be viewed that
often anyways.

I think drawing a large semi transparent plane over everything under the buttons to gray them out and the red border would make them stand out very much. Otherwise the green and clashing colours just looks unproffesional. It also negates the problem of redflashing border on a red map background.

Say "(Recommendation: Select Always)" as well.
