Shed painting?

Is that anything like a can of worms?

Some ideas:

Right now we offer 2 easy defaults:

Setup Form
Setup 95

The first gives a pager and menus for launching,
icons for minimized applications, and commented out
skeletons for other modules and customization.

The second gives a taskbar.


Of course, neither suits me but if I had to start
over I'd start with the Form.  It would be nice
if there was only one setup path.

There is more to this than just appearance.
Each choice involves key bindings, appearance,
window button function, mode of operation (task bars,
icons, pagers).

Whatever we do, there has to be a way for users to avoid it.
That was the logic behind the customization thing I posted about
a while ago, each thing that installed itself provides a
hook that un-installs itself.
