I'd swap your defaults and alternatives, but agree on this set of apps.

I agree with this, but to me the defaults should be the Linux native and
optimized user experience, and the alternatives should be the "Windows
migration" applications.
Red Hat/Fedora use Mozilla by default.
Why Red Hat choose Mozilla over Galeon and Epiphany ? For migration
propose ?
btw, Galeon and Epiphany use Gecko which is not Linux native.
cross-platform does not mean "push windows touch anywhere".
Mozilla is a "Windows migration" application only if the Windows user
already use Mozilla.
Mozilla is a "Linux migration" application only if the Linux user
already use Mozilla.
If I show Firefox to a Windows user they don't say :
- great Windows application, sound like IE.
If I show Evolution to a Windows user ...
This is assuming of course basically comparable functionality;
OO.org is
the default since it is the only app with really suitable functionality.
