Yes, but we include enough disparate stuff that we're basically another Indigo - and Indigo has dozens of categories of tools. There's no "install everything" button for Indigo either, unless you include the "Select All" button in the UI itself. 

Maybe we just need to teach users how to use the p2 user interface? Should I provide a screenshot showing the "Select All" button highlighted on the install page [1] ?

> All JBoss Tools is very confusing.
> it is unclear to the novice user what checkboxes should be checked.  
> I believe the right "subset" is 
> - All JBoss Tools
> - Application Development
> - Maven Support
> - Web and Java EE Development
> Those 4 should be "All JBoss Tools" or "the Right Set of JBoss Tools" for the average user.
