You did do most of the work...
The only thing remaining I can think of is icons/shortcuts.
I did take a quick look, the problem is - I don't know (and I don't
think I can deduce) whether the user was installing for "all users" or
"Just Me" or whether they even asked for icons/shortcuts in the menu/
on the desktop anyway!
If you have any thoughts (reg settings?) I'd be happy to add this
to the list of things base- can do :)
