Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
In the "What do you want to migrate?" step there's a "Lite" and "Complete" option. The folders that are listed to be migrated is the "Applications Folder" and "[insert_username_here] Folder".

But the wiki says the following about the "Complete" option:

Complete: All applications, user preferences, and the entire User folder are migrated (with the exception of the Library folder, where only Application Support and Preferences folders are included).

I find this to be a bit problematic since the "[insert_username_here] Folder" is listed under the "Complete" option. That would indicate to the user that everything in the home folder will be migrated. Also, "Library" is listed when you click on the "[insert_username_here] Folder" under the "Complete" option, which also would indicate to the user that this folder will be migrated.

Describe the solution you'd like
Make it more clear to the user that not everything in the home folder will be migrated. Maybe add a info/warning box that says "Some data has been excluded from being migrated by your organisation" or something similar. Followed by a "Show info" button, which will list what won't be migrated based on the values of the urlExclusionList, explicitAllowList and excludedFiles variables.
