This will affect people who install Cygwin on machines that already have
an installation on it -- some people may *want* to choose "Just for me"
intentionally (don't know how many of those there are -- anyone?). The
main problem is that "Just for me" doesn't adequately express the possible
caveats and limitations. Renaming it to "Only one user without services"
might help...
