In the same contents most users do not want to see Debug or Development packages by default yet these conditions are default in Software Management. I feel that many users get unduly worried when the search for applications when the list includes both Debug and Applications are under development. My request is that we remove these two defaults and in their place have the 'System Verification Mode' and 'Clean-up When Deleting Packages' and 'Allow Vendor Change' - as the three defaults rather than Debug and Development being the default. Its by far a more user friendly approach however for those few users and at factory I can see their value. None the less the 2 current default only serve to confuse users and often result in applications being installed that are primarily still in developement. Having the default 'Allow Vendor Change' is a no brainer - so many users get frightened with conflict resolutions appearing when a simple change of vendor is the only requirement to accept new changes or additional software.
