Goal of that dialog would be to allow easy UI for common scenarios like workstation with major desktops and minimal server. For other users we allows patterns selection and even in summary you can fine tune it with full software selection if you want. As can be seen in third gif, picking e.g. lxde is also very easy with it, just one click more.
First time users may want other desktops than the majors.
I miss at least the "minimal graphical install" that was available on previous versions.

What about Cinnamon? Very popular.

If it has a pattern in the main repo then it will show up under Other when using the Net install (from memory its not on the DVD). There was a number of criteria put forward as to why Gnome and KDE should have there own position such as accessibility openQA test coverage and some others. At some point (in another thread) we should formalize this so that if another desktop like Cinnamon or Enlightenment claims to meet this criteria they can put forward a good case to be added to the main list but that is a separate discussion. One of the main goals for this proposal is too make it easier and clearer to install Mate, Cinnamon, LXQt and others but at the same time not give new users a choice of 8+ desktops which would be confusing, choosing between 2 is hard enough. -- Simon Lees (Simotek) http://simotek.net Emergency Update Team keybase.io/simotek SUSE Linux Adelaide Australia, UTC+10:30 GPG Fingerprint: 5B87 DB9D 88DC F606 E489 CEC5 0922 C246 02F0 014B
