We are talking about beginners and activity that'll be done... once?
I cannot find a reason why clicking "Emacs Tutorial..." then selecting
language (including English) would be annoying - it will be, in
case of "Language (default English):", typing RET.  I do find it
logical: 1st - select tutorial, 2nd - select language.  Plain and
simple.

Well, I'll wait and see where this thread will go, before I submit
another bug report.
