I meant the first time you clicked on the Beagle icon on the taskbar.
Would you have *all* apps request permission to run initially? Or just
those that a few individuals deem undesirable, or all that *anyone*
deemed less than what *they* wanted?
And would *all* apps appear on the taskbar waiting permission?

users don't want these features [that come at essentially zero code]
enabled.

Hey, I don't use spreadsheets?!! Why is *&(*@ (*@*(@& Open Office Calc
installed?! I don't print!? Why is CUPS running by default?! It is
using 3.1MB of RAM? What a waste!
