Perhaps I should update my sig to say, "I don't use Windows. I hate 
Windows. Windows can die in a fire while I laugh maniacally" and you'd 
feel better? Another way to look at it, rather than nonsense, would be 
as a hack. A hack is basically to get a thing done using any means 
necessary, regardless of how unconventional. My proposal was due to an 
uninformed guess that the end user would not be easily allowed to 
install packages or otherwise perform root operations. At this point it 
appears there may be a more Linux-like, traditional method.

It would be more like Linux regressing from the Linux way to the Windows 
way; taking a step backward. Linux package management has always been 
light years ahead of how other OSs install software. Other than 
available software, there is nothing about Windows remotely superior to 
GNU/Linux. So relax, you got the wrong guy here.
