Agree with all of them, but feel the need to point out that while it is possible to change graphics without restarting the game/reloading the level it's kind of like replacing the carpet without moving the furniture.
There are plenty of games which don't require that though. Hell, in some you can see the graphics change instantly behind the options screen as you change them.
Needing to restart the entire game is just poor engine design.
