Using pirut (Add/Remove software) program on groups is a lot better to 
get everything when you right click and select all packages in the 
group. I tried this for the games selection and pulled in 46 game 
packages altogether. The children have a lot of options now to stay in 
Linux mode. This feature works on Internet package retrievals excellent.

The everything install is not really missing. The choice is a few clicks 
away vs. one button to pull in all packages available in core.
