Please don't give people ideas! :D

At the moment, even if it's been growing as of late, the list doesn't
strike me as being “too long” (no, I don't have a precise definition for
it). Even with two extra desktop entries, the whole list of choices
would still appear on a single screen, and would be visible without any
scrolling. (This is with the graphical installer, on a laptop that's
sticking to 800×600.)
