USC already hides non-graphical packages by default, showing them if you
click the "Show __ technical items" link (which is present only if there
are any). It shows non-graphical packages by default in select areas
where it is appropriate: Fonts, Science & Engineering, Mathematics,
Developer Tools, and most of the Developer Tools subcategories.

So, in what situations specifically have users been confused by command-
line applications being shown?

Further, if that is a problem, how would an option to show graphical
packages only help? It seems implausible that someone would be confused,
and then find and toggle the option, and then become non-confused.

I am marking this Incomplete only for the first question. If there is a
problem, we can adjust this bug report to describe the problem, and then
consider alternative possible solutions.
