Now that we have clickable categories, I think we should consider not
making "Base" the default installation, defaulting to something like
"Standard" instead.

Standard would include things like:

base +
bzip2
bash
clear
tcsh
less
vim
telnet
ssh
cygrunsrv
mutt
perl?
python?
shutdown?
ssmtp
unzip
zip

The rationale is that people can still select a minimal install with
base but still choose a usable setup with Standard.

How does this sound?
