--- Comment #2 from Adolfo Jayme <[email protected]> ---
I don’t see the point of reviving obsolete user interface paradigms. Wizards in
general are clumsy and in-your-face. And I disagree that we need to shove down
users’ throats the perception that we are a software project in need of
contributors (I don’t mean we aren’t in need, but why users, especially
enterprise users, should care about that?)

We’ve removed this wizard on purpose. There was no useful functionality for us
in it —
“Welcome”? That’s obsolete, and a top UX violation according to [1].
“License agreement”? Just no.
“User name”? That’s the *first* page in Options, why duplicate and why
encourage people to provide sensitive details that are easily leaked beyond
users’ control?
“Online update”? That should be invisible to users’ eyes, just like Chrome.
“Registration”? We aren’t a greedy corporation, but a foundation that protects
people’s privacy; so we won’t unnecessarily collect that kind of data.

Sorry, but I’m seeing too many disadvantages that most likely outweigh any
possible advantage (I can’t think of any, to be honest).
