Hi,

I would really appreciate it if I could select 'server' or 'desktop'
installation at install time, which would (or would not) add
'WITHOUT_X11="YES"' to /etc/make.conf. With every installation I do,
I think of this too late, polluting my system with libs I don't need.

I'm quite sure that most FreeBSD installations are server installs that
don't need X. And it's okay if you'd like to try and get more desktop
users to use your system. But it would be equally okay to support more
'traditional' users to keep their systems clean.

Thanks for considering,
  Rob
>How-To-Repeat:
Do a fresh install.
>Fix:
Add a yes/no to the installation.
