Other solution involves using the command line to get rid of the application enhancement software.

It offers integration if you don't go messing with the core of the OS. The products in question apply kernel patches. You shouldn't apply kernel patches to any OS, Windows and Linux included, if you don't know what you are doing. This still isn't an Apple problem, it's a user problem.
