Comment:

 I'm not sure adding an option for non-exit relay will be the best idea.

 May be, having all boxes unchecked in "Exit Policies" by default for being
 a relay, and explain in few words that like that you are just relaying
 traffic _inside_ the Tor network, and to relay to the outside you'd have
 to check some or all the checkboxes in the Exit Policies tab. And refer
 them to more help resources as StrangeCharm suggested.

 Opinions?
