I'm all for skipping dialogs which have nothing to offer me,
especially on startup. I don't think that's inconsistent. When the
date of the transaction rolls around I'll see the dialog and be happy
about it... until then, don't bother me!

I haven't updated my CVS tree in a few months... maybe after I get
around to upgrading Mandrake I'll get around to a little more testing.

Have fun,
