Well, we all know Linux offers choice. I don't think would be a bad 
thing to offer options instead of a single preferred app.

For example, kcontrol or <whatever the new one is called>; konqueror, or 
dolphin and firefox, and so on. Personally, I prefer krusader, though 
;-)

Of course, all these can be set in alternatives, but perhaps the arcane 
nature of alternatives is the problem.
