I don't agree.  I believe granularity is not only useless but harmful for
the majority of users.  See user studies of desktop app install flows or
options dialogs that universally conclude that giving people more choices
helps a small number of people and loses a large number.  This is the
philosophy we designed Chrome around, so we're strong backers of it.
