[Inkscape-devel] effects menu

Is there any specific reason we have the Effects menu off by default?

From what I heard extensions now work even on Windows, so why not

enable them for the release?

If they don't work without Python installed, do we now have a nice dialog that shows up when you try to run an extension (NOT on running Inkscape :) and says you need to install the interpreter? With such a dialog or something similar, I would vote for enabling the Effects menu.

And in any case, I would like to remove the big "EXPERIMENTAL" in the preferences label. It conveys no information, just scares users away.

Thoughts?
