hrm.  there's some QA messages i think we should have all our users see by 
default (so they'll report bugs), and there's some i think should be in the 
developer profiles.  although, i think most are in the former category, so 
maybe we shouldn't sweat it for now ?

specifically, i'm thinking of the build type warnings that we label as upstream 
should be shown to devs and not users ...
