Well, I think you misapply KISS. Suppose a user really needs to
select a language or wants to use kde? Do you really believe it's
simpler to explain how to edit a .xsession file than to select the
appropriate menu item? Certain things *require* a certain level of
complexity, and simply hiding the feature doesn't make it easier to use.
