As it is now the user has to read the whole thing (first the leading
sentence, then the options, then put both in a meaningful relation)
before he can decide what to do. Our goal was always to make it as
simple as reasonable for the user to understand what we exactly mean.
So why not write in the options what is really done?
Some installed packages (hardware and language support) may not be
needed on your computer.
[ ] Check to remove unused hardware support
[ ] Check to remove unused language support
Here the option tells exactly and with no room for misunderstanding in
one line what it is doing when checked or unchecked.
