It's supposed to be below the binaries, but it does seem to have
slipped lower than it should (ie. it should be above third party and
CDs/appliances). I'll fix that.
The basic philosophy btw, is to put the easiest to use options first,
to minimise the amount of pain a new user has to go through to get up
and running. The savvy users have no problem jumping to the
distro-specific options when they want them, whilst the less
experienced users sometimes have no idea what they need at all, and
will just go elsewhere if they can't figure it out in a few minutes.
We know for a fact that this used to happen quite regularly, though
for various reasons I cannot say how we know that.
