Vladimir, please work with me on this. This is clearly subjective so 
it's really what you believe is good vs. what I believe is good. I want 
to make sure vibe releases are in sync and guaranteed to work with dmd, 
thus making for a perfectly smooth experience.

Don't forget things like the IE icon being on the desktop or not, or the 
default search engine, or the default homepage - all are big things 
although technically alternatives were always a few seconds away.

I don't have logical arguments, this could go either way. So work with 
me on this. Thanks.
