Yes, it is possible, that's why Sven asked the question.  The
options don't have any obvious utility, though (repeat blurring
is nothing more than a very slow way of producing a Gaussian
blur), so there does not seem to be any good reason for keeping
the options unless deleting them will break something that 
already exists.

This could be done with some cleverness, but I would oppose it on
the grounds that the preview should be as near as possible to the 
controls.
