So, the goal of this is for a multi-user forensic system, where you have multiple users working on the same system su-ing to root and running the tools of their choice? That's an odd usage case to design for by default. > Also > there may be a feature in one application, that is missing in another. Then fix one app so that it's reasonable enough. To quote Adam Jackson: "Choice is not the goal. We have many interesting problems to solve and forcing the user to care about their choice of solutions is both bad UI and actively detracts from the real goal, which is making it work out of the box and enabling people to work on the really cool stuff at the edges." In comps, in most any group, the default item is the best-of-breed app; other implementations are optional. > Btw. I fail to understand what trouble this is causing you.

It's about not presenting bad UI and bad groups to our users - it's a design thing.
