There is one thing though when a newie come's over say to Linux Kernel 2.6/3.0 and is starting out using the new CML2 system he could acidentialy hit the wroung key and all the other option's for the other Linux Kernel port's will show up and he could click on one of the and try to make a kernel that is for a x86 and he could be clicking in the IA64 port menu on acident. Do you see what I'm saying?
I have done it before and I downloaded CML2 2.0.3 and I did it againYes. This will happen if you happen if you toggle the suppression flag. I'm considering disabling that unless you're in expert mode.
Maybe better: use other keystrings. I.e. Control + key.
In this way is more difficult to press the wrong key sequence, but we still have the full features in all modes.

Not a bad idea, but where possible I like to keep the ttyconfig and menuconfig commands the same -- and ttyconfig can't easily see control characters.
Anyway this would just address a surface symptom. The real problem is that the deduction engine can do bad things when suppression is off. I want to fix that.

Debian uses the big letter. i.e. in dselect 'Q' and 'X', 'R' will force some symbols changes.
Control is better because of no 'Control Caps Lock'.
