Who defines, what is “reasonable”? Probably by the amount of estimated 
users? In my opinion, that approach is going to fail. We should strive 
for a strategy to cater to all users to reduce the IT helpdesk work to a 
minimum. An app approach will less likely reach than compared to native 
OS integration with just configuration files.


Kind regards,

Paul
