Alright then, I'll ask you the same question I asked Aley: If you don't
like the current methods of selecting the correct disk image, how would
you prefer it to be done?

All that clicking and typing is only really equivalent to hunting through
a disk box, finding the right disk and putting it in the drive. I just
don't see why everybody's making such a complete fuss over having to press
the F9 key... and Ian has already posted a hack for that anyway...
