"Wishlist" isn't fair I think. Ubuntu is supposed to "just work", out of the box. New users may not know about removing the CD from /etc/apt/sources.list (or doing the same from Adept/Synaptic). If the user has an internet connection, it *should* offer a choice, instead of stubbornly demanding a CD and annoying the user. Specially for laptop users, both the availability of an internet connection and the availability of the CD may vary with time. Both options should be easily accessible, without requiring an update (the GUI apps do an update when they change sources.list).
