Why not set the limit to the number of cores during first setup?
After that, anyone playing with "Advanced" preferences has no right to complain...
edit:
or if that still makes it too easy for users to shoot themselves, how about reading a variable ncpus from global.py (with no GUI). If it is set, then it overrides the detected number. Then nobody's computer overheats unless they Edit A Configuration File!
