I think the major point of complaints has been by those using regular
Ubuntu but wanting to get rid of particular package, not by those using
Lubuntu or such which doesn't come with OpenOffice.org et al. installed.
Recommends would solve that without causing regressions. I agree that
there is also the group of people needing more minimal installations
out-of-the-box, but they are not the majority of Ubuntu users which use
the major flavors.

My guesstimate based on previous experiences is that having to click a
notification will be missed by ca. 50% of ordinary Ubuntu users. 5% of
those 50% will come to Ubuntu Finland's forums and get the info how to
get spellcheck working. The rest will either accept that "ok, Ubuntu
does not have Finnish spellchecking" or complain around how Ubuntu is
not that good for average user. I don't want to exaggerate, but
something like this it seems to always go when everything is not done
automatically for the user. The notifications nowadays are a bit better
than the light bulb in the old days, but they still don't last that
long, are only shown once (, are often without translations) etc.

(btw, I cannot test any language-selector functionality currently either
because it crashes on launch, bug/trace #427716)
