>From the UX point of view, the OS should detect your configuration and choose the most appropriate default configs automatically. These defaults probably won't work for everybody either, so there still should be a better way than editing config files, e.g. a configuration GUI. If your users have to manually edit config files, you're doing something wrong. So shipping an editor is a workaround, not a solution. +++ GUI apps that are designed to think what the user might think are exactly that kind of PITA that made me switch to Arch Linux. I'll encourage any major distro to fall back to a KISS principle.
