It's nice for someone to make it sound so simple!
Yet, I have myself encountered an issue where a patch (Login & Keychain Update 1.0) for a known bug that caused users to be unable to log in to their Mac after an upgrade install was released before the 10.5.1 update, but actually wasn't included in the 10.5.1 update, leaving me going through all of Apple's support pages to find a solution that didn't work, which caused me to reinstall everything, when I found out that this issue occurred after several log ins and a complete update to 10.5.1 + a security update ...
Along with these three little fellows:
* 306508 Mac OS X 10.5: Can't log in to account that has no password
* 306965 Mac OS X 10.5, iMac (Mid 2007): Stuck in a "loop" at the login window after upgrading to Leopard
* 306876 Mac OS X 10.5: Administrator user changes to standard
These are things that actually caused problems for users, the more superficial stuff was easily resolved through Terminal commands and hints on the 'net ...

It was, it's just people didn't like some of the new stuff, from what I've seen they addressed that now.
Apple took away their 2d dock(needed a hack to get it back), all hell broke lose just on that.
