'Artful' users made (and still make, when they somehow notice they are
EOL, such as when requesting support in #ubuntu, or because repositories
are archived) the same 'user experience'. It would be great if this
could be improved for when 14.04 hits EOL.

This bug does effect me, and before I even was aware of this
I am affected by this. I have installed Ubuntu on many computers for
people that just wanted a basic computer. Ubuntu was perfect for them,
and I rarely get any calls for help. Many of these users would want me
