Thinking about it some more, I'm not completely convinced anymore... :)
If we think outside the Haiku project world, things may get a bit
muddled in the future. Especially when the PackageManager is here, the
borders of what's in a Haiku installation may get fuzzy. People may
even get the chance to choose packages while installing Haiku.
Distinguishing what's part of the base system and what's a 3rd party
app may not be so easy.
Maybe an About dialog isn't that useless after all...
