This suggestion goes well beyond a papercut, but here goes anyway.

Pass this to the team handling the Migration tool that runs during the
install process.

As it stands the migration tool imports users bookmarks, wallpapers,
files etc from whatever other OS's it detects.

Why not create a script that runs as part of the migration tool to make
minor adjustments to Ubuntu based on the OS that the user is migrating
from.

Basically, if Windows is detected, and files are imported, then the
windows key should be mapped to the Applications menu. Firefox's address
bar should be set to select the entire contents etc. There are many more
examples....

The same goes for Mac users (I'm just not familiar with the setup)

This would solve a huge amount of stress for new users and remove an
awful lot of "but I can do that in Windows" bug reports.

Anyone any thoughts on this?
