    Could we have an option do dismiss that ugly thing once and for all instead of just "for now"? I must either remove the preview packages, and it's not always possible, or dismiss it each time I load my project...

    Thank you.

    I personally don't mind having that disclaimer there, it doesn't obstruct the editor use in any way. If you could dismiss it, it would be easy to forget that packages would have those and that would beat the whole point of the warning.

    I feel that having a small warning for preview packages is still better than having people openly bashing Unity for being buggy mess when people don't fully realize they are actually using prereleased things. It has damaged Unity's image in past years already as even seasoned Unity users can't take nature of preview stuff into account.

    There was already a warning, in the title bar.

    They must have gotten so many support messages about preview packages errors, that this notification makes sense.
