I need to ponder this. I fully agree with you by the way, but I think it 
is not a really easy matter to accomplish correctly. I have in my 
ancient times written little demo files for new users of some programs 
at work. It was a hellish job to get it so that even the most "stupid" 
(not supposed to be negative) user could navigate through without 
errors. One gets illuminating insights into the functioning of the human 
mind ;-)
