Correct. Note that there's also another tiny change pending here to add
easy checkbox access to Extras and the currently available updates
(well, I'm not 100% sold on the latter... but definitely the former). I
hope to land that today or tomorrow.
Yay. Jeremy rocks. I would love to have direct access to updates within
the installer as a *option*. I know regressions on updates would make
this messy but the right solution is to avoid regressions anyway.

Yep -- also, if you want me to review things, just let me know.
Cool. Now if we get Pirut to work on media and nfs trees, Puplet by
default, Pup with the Luke Macken's cool new UI and spicy notifications
I am almost sold. Network manager by default would be even better but
that maybe asking for too much ;-)
