I've wondered about this.  I know its not somthing they've done before, 
but with amount of problems with even the installation process, it may be 
beneficial.

I remember 7.0 getting a lot of bashing post-release, mainly for including 
a buggy gcc. That was this sort of thing thats only likley to affect more 
advanced users who are perfectly capable of sorting out a fix.

I would say these installer/post install issues are more important as they 
could well be make-or-break for new linux users.
