I do not see why we should remove functionality (and almost everything
is there for a good reason) to "polish the user experience".  I do not
even see that the latter is needed (the things mentioned in the initial
mail we really minor things and/or probably quite easy to add), but
that's maybe my fault as a hard-core UNIX guy...

I recently had to install a SLES system for some experimental reason
and ended up with a screwed-up system (read: MBR), probably because
the user experience was so polished that it didn't want to ask me
the things it *should* have asked :(.
