--- Comment #1 from V Stuart Foote <vsfoote at libreoffice.org> ---
Why? We should NOT pester people with this kind of nonsense, we should provide
functional defaults that let them get on with using the application.

If they choose to poke around with customization and personalization--fine!

Bet we should not FORCE it on them, there are other documentation
avenues/getting started help that is more appropriate than an "in-your-face" do
this before you can start doing anything.

The UI picker as evolved was sufficient, it hinted that the MUFFIN assemblages
were available as alternatives. Beyond that we WANT people to read the manual
and spend time on forum, maillist, even ASK on how to use/configure
LibreOffice.

We don't need to do hand-holding to walk folks through it--that's just
insulting to even the average user.
