Of course there is going to be a lot of bikeshedding about the order of the
options. I would put them in that order, because I think desktop spins are
most likely to be downloaded by a new user, then mobile, then use-case-
specific labs, then experiments like Atomic, and then non-desktop stuff like
Server. But the most important feature is the "I HATE OPTIONS!" button,
because it serves exactly the users you think will be confused by the
options and will give them a desktop environment designed exactly for them.
