Sounds good, although it should be noted that "System" contains modules t=

modify "system-wide" as opposed to "user-wide" settings. As a result thos=

modules require root-accesss. I suspect that the Printer Manager can do b=

which makes it a difficult decision where to put it....(putting it at bot=

locations doesn't seem very attractive either.)
