I talked with Sebastien Bacher on IRC about the idea to add a GUI option:

After that I have checked out what the official flavors do today, and found that Kubuntu shows the whole list by default, but not the other flavors. As far as I could see noone has a GUI option for the purpose.

There are pros and cons with a GUI option. However you label it, most people won't understand what it is about, which wouldn't be good from a design POV.

So let's consider this bug fixed given that we now have a gsettings option which can be changed either via terminal or via dconf-editor, and which is honored by both u-c-c and g-c-c.

As regards Ubuntu I have added a note to the desktop guide:
