I think this would be an excellent thing for novices too, as it appears
_every_ one I have encountered do not realize that they must close
dialog boxes (thinking that clicking on it's parent will close the
dialog) Or they cannot grasp the concept of drop-down menu's 
(to this day my parents still are lost if an app doesn't have a
 functional toolbar).  The MacOS has this feature for novices _and_ 
the deaf/dumb/blind.
