I think that it should be easy to tell if something is easy to use or not,
but I might be wrong. Everything should be self-evident without suffocating
advanced users in "If you are right handed, click the mouse button closest
to the keyboard (left button)" messages. Right from the start, we need a
group of people who are willing to test various parts of SEUL as they are
developed - this would include anybody that can be dragged in front of a
computer. This is the best way to get feedback, 'cos us jaded Linuxers might
not spot some of the small points that a complete newbie would be lost with.
