Description Mikhail Gusarov 2007-03-03 10:07:18 MSK

"Menu" menu contains two items: Help and Abort. Why don't convert them to 
buttons in dialogs? It will be much more usable than current situation when 
user need to click to "Menu" only to get the slightest idea what's inside. 
More, user can't be sure that "Menu" do not contain additional items on the 
later stages of installation.

"Menu" name of button means you did not found any semantical grouping of the 
buttons inside, just grouped them together mechanically. That's very misleading!

Guys, it's a simple installer! What additional buttons do YOU expect to appear 
in this menu?
