Oh man would I love to have that :) I've day dreamed of a system a lot like 
that. One thing I'd mandate if I ever designed my ideal system is that installation 
/in total/ is plunking in the dir, and removal is simply deleting it. Once 
it's gone, it's gone. Nothing may remain that can in ANY WAY effect other 
apps. That would implies that after each boot nothing is installed and everything 
is installed on launch.
