Rules
- Group settings by what they're about, each group with a title and one line of description.
- Say how it saves. A group of text fields saves together with a Save changes button; switches save at once and need no button.
- Confirm a save with a toast; show errors next to the field.
- Dangerous settings (delete account, transfer ownership) go last, in their own group, behind an Alert dialog.
