I read it as that he wants to display the GPL up front, but that he thinks whether or not it should be required to "accept" it is legal hair splitting.

Kovid, is that right? Would you accept a patch that would remove the checkbox, so that the GPL is displayed during the installation, along with a text explaining that if you modify or redistribute the program you are bound to it, but without having to "accept" it before continuing the installation?
