No. We should hide part of the information by default, but make it both possible: * for users to access the extra information without anything too complicated; * for administrators to really lock information if that's really useful. Relevant information easily gets lost when there is too much of it, which is why a *default* setup should never show all available information. And this isn't only relevant for menus. -- .''`. : :' : We are debian.org. Lower your prices, surrender your code. `. `' We will add your hardware and software distinctiveness to `- our own.
