Not a fan. With work for bug 115131 we now have one combined menu action to
directly select-- View -> User Interface--seems adequate. Much as with see also
bug 102070 -- this type of in your face "guidance" for users is not effective
marketing or UX.

IHMO, see no reason for overhead of maintaining a Dialog to pick UI's on
initial profile setup and lots of opportunity for muddled profiles.

In other words we gain nothing/offer nothing to the user, and cause a whole lot
of dev/maintenance work for a questionable dialog.
