I added a comment to the "everything" bugzilla (but it didn't reopen it)
asking to be able to right click on the top 6 items to install all of the
optional packages you could get in the installer. I don't think there is
a good reason to not make installing all of the packages you are allowed to
select easy.

Note that there are some significant things that are not in any standard or
optional package, but are on the install iso(s). This includes the
alternate selinux policies (Strict and MLS) and the tape drive utilities
(mt-st). Perhaps another top level category for less commonly needed software
could be created that would cover packages that don't cause conflicts and
so wouldn't cause problems if people installed them.
