I've been an off and on user of Cygwin for a long time, and over the 
years the setup program (and process) has incrementally gotten better. 
I'm not all that great at development, and I really hate whinging about 
free software that more-or-less works because basically I can't do any 
better, but I've hit (what I consider) a bug in the setup program three 
or 4 times today, and it's got me a tad annoyed.

When selecting packages, if one hits the arrow keys (at least the down 
arrow, I'm not sure about the others, and I'm in the middle of a lengthy 
selection process, so I'm not testing it right now) it closes all of the 
trees and sets all of the selections to the default. Was this 
deliberate, or is a bug?
