And everyone confident is "advanced" and everyone nervous is
"neophyte" and/or insulted. Palm seems somehow to have captured the
notion of exploration - as you explore an app you find features but it
never forces them on you.

Why do you need "user levels". Providing the user adds stuff to their
context menu thent they ought to be allowed to do so. The problem is if
the applications, the install and the like suddenely give a user 30
options they didn't want.
