If its removed, are there any plans to actually create anything akin
to the first-run
tutorial kind of thing you mention?  Perhaps instead of thinking a
'first run' tutorial thing, perhaps i can infect you with the idea of
something useful beyond first run, a sort of task based guided tour
that can be referenced when people want to learn how to do a new task
but don't really know what applications to use.  And if I want to get
all starry-eyed, it could be updated over the lifetime of its release
to encompass more task based help beyond what was available at install
time.
