Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: compizconfig-settings-manager

When in ccsm you export your configuration, you will be met with the
following dialog:

"Do you want to skip default option values while exporting your profile?

[No] [Yes]"

The default being "No".

Do I wanna' what... again?  Don't I want to not avoid skipping the...
double negations?

I think this dialog would be made clearer if the question was phrased
positively (i.e. "Do you want to *include* default option values
[...]"), and the buttons instead of saying yes/no said "Include default
option values" and "Don't include default option values".

(I'm on jaunty, using cc-s-m version 0.8.2-0ubuntu1)
