And it would also be nice if there are update plugins - for the most 
part this would be one add-on which connects to something like BeBits; 
but we shouldn't focus on this but should also provide a CVS add-on, or 
application defined add-ons.

Just have one installer application to handle them all in a common way.

Adios...
