How bout when it come to erros. Currently my Control Applets 
occainsionaly dont work.
I get a message saying "Could not start capplet". Very informative. A

with modern GUI's.

What's the initial advice when a user gets such a message? Run it from

My point being, GUI's, as does the command line, should have a default

Very rarely they do.
