      In the Options dialog, when an enabled profile tracks an option (for example the server address on the General page), the field highlight and the warning message at the bottom of the page can contradict each other.

      The field is highlighted as "overridden" only when the profile's stored value actually differs from the base (global) value. When the profile tracks the option but its value equals the base value, the field gets the lighter "tracked" highlight instead. The bottom warning, however, always says the settings are "overridden" as long as the option is present in the profile, regardless of the value.

      As a result the server address field is only "sometimes" highlighted as overridden, which contradicts the message shown at the bottom of the page.

      Steps to reproduce:
      1. Create a profile that tracks the server address (General page).
      2. Leave the profile's server address equal to the global/base value.
      3. Enable the profile and open Options > General.

      Expected: The field highlight and the bottom warning agree on whether the option is overridden or merely tracked.

      Actual: The field shows the "tracked" highlight while the bottom message says the settings are "overridden".
