custom user-profiling upon HD-Install?
because different users have different basic needs, which can all be rendered into the way the desktop is organized, it's shortcuts, toolbars, and so on, i thought that i may be quite easy to do such a trick:
why not asking upon installing knx to hard disk (along with a "what is your name?" question that would allow the renaming of the default knoppix user to a more friendly custom-named one!) something like:
"what kind of user are you?
[ ] novice user (everything must be there and flashy)
[ ] family-father user (office/internet/multimedia)
[ ] developper ( bare interface with lots of tools directly on the desktop?)
[ ] network guy (bare interface with lots of network and internet tools?)
"
default profiles with different themes and desktops and even why not windowmanagers could make this interesting, don't you think?

I think that is a good idea also ...
