Forgive me, in Windows when one installs, you can actually click on the menu
you want it to go to.  Nobody does it.

Please indulge me this once and fill my failed memory with this suggestion.
All I remember is you saying system apps and user apps should be separated,
as if it was that clean of a split(where does ping go?).

The way I see it, everything gets shoved into default 99 percent of the time
for 99% of users.

One through zero?  What about control-alt-letters and arrows?
