I totally agree with you here. Average users do not fiddle with settings. Give them sane defaults, and they are happy. Average users only configure stuffs like wallpaper, winamp skin, and msn avatar, so that the desktop has its own identity. Other than that, they just want consistency from one app to another, as well as consistency from one computer to another. There is no need to hide options from average users. For them, the options are already well hidden.
