That displays the fallacy that users want to configure stuff. They might want the option to tune an application but generally users just want applications to work and will as a rule rather live with a suboptimal default configuration for their soecific job than dig through options and confusing tools/dialogs. The lesson we have to take away from this is to strive for good default but remain configurable through a nice uniform interface. This is exactly why gconf is so cool, translatable decriptor strings explain what every key does for the user who likes to tweak the more exoteric parts of their applications and the rest get a nice clean interface with good defaults and the bare essencesial options. Please don't assume that users _want_ to configure, it's not an end goal, it's a means to get work done. - David Nielsen
