Don't forget that "less sophisticated users" is precisely the audience
Debian Jr. eventually hopes to reach.  We started with "children using
the systems of existing Debian users" (probably a fairly select crowd)
but with the OSEF live CD, we already reach completely new families
whose introduction to Debian is through a free CD that was given to
them.  And as we work on a native live CD mastering capability for all
Custom Debian Distributions, we will be able to reach even more of these
people.  Ultimately, and again in cooperation with OSEF, we hope to be
able to take Debian Jr. packaged in this way into libraries and other
public places.  There, we will hand it out to large numbers of people in
the community with accompanying sessions teaching families how to use
these CDs.  So keep these people in mind when you're thinking about Tux
Paint Config in Debian.
