Question on changing the defaults on the new menu system
 

Hello,

I thought I saw someone mention it but now I can't find it. Is there any easy way to change the default items that are checked off in the menu system? I'm not trying to add unlisted OEMs or anything, I just want to set the defaults so every time I run it, it will have the same items checked off I would normally use.

Thanks

Never mind - I found the option.xml in the sys directory and each sub - I thought there might be one XML to rule them all.

thanks

Having "one XML to rule them all" would be a pain to maintain, since OEMs come from a variety of people.

I think some sort of override system might be nice though. More specifically...
:arrow: If there was an "override" folder that would always be processed last
:arrow: Rather than error out when hitting duplicate UUID's, the tool would override the former values associated with that UUID.

Then we could have an easy mechanism to add personal customizations to existing OEMs, without needing to manually edit them with each Kitchen release.

Some of this is possible today using differing UUID's, but making sure your UUID is higher so it is processed later. But needing to fiddle with the UUIDs seems more difficult to me, and doesn't allow certain actions like deselecting an OEM package.

One missing function in either case is the ability to remove files from an other OEM without physically removing from the other OEM.
