I've taken HCI, I'm not entirely clueless here.  Obviously, the
language used to expose it must express what is happening.  We
could call it the "Useless" class if you didn't want anyone to
select it, though that would get a flood of mailing list questions.
"Bare-bones" has been suggested.  There's got to be the right name
somewhere to convey the right impression (install this and you are
on your own), but there's also the text that accompanies the name
and we really can describe what is going on there.
