Shouldn't matter at that step.  You are checking the "Backup Users" box 
right?  Maybe the text is misleading in that it only happens when you 
check the box. What it's trying to say is that if you just check the box, 
all users are selected, versus selecting individual users using the button 
below.  I'm unable to duplicate the behavior you describe if I 
check it.

Sounds like a good idea.  I'm told the wizard doesn't really behave like 
a wizard should, so perhaps in reworking it I could do something like 
that.
