How hard can it be to give the user a choice during the install, and why is

You are given a choice. You just refuse to see that.
the way to choose is fine by me, but, for example, manually going
through aptitude and finding kde somewhere in tasks isn't exactly easy
for the newbie; as said before the tasksel options are not targeted to
for advanced debian-users
I think, if the newbie just wants kde because of some fancy screenshots,
it's too hard for him/her; remember the newbie doesn't know the
character '/' upons up a search in so many linux/unix tools, so he/she
is completely lost in an unknown interface
Why would it complicate matters so much to add a menu item in the
tasksel selection labeled 'KDE desktop' that ads 'kde' to the list of
packages to download (as aptitude will do the rest) ? I do not
understand :-s
note, I do not say it's a problem for me, and I personally wouldn't care
too much whether there's a KDE option right there - but I do say it'd
likely be a problem for me if I never saw aptitude before, without the
faintest idea how to search
just a small remark
