Comment (by fatman2):

 Replying to [comment:26 dustin]:
 > it will make a lot of assumptions which may be invalid for some users'
 environments

 A valid point. The configuration method - be it Control Panel applet or
 wizard - should provide the ability to tweak all those assumptions.

 > It's also a lot more work, a lot more decisions to make, and a lot more
 to support

 When I started the NSI scripts, I didn't plan to burden you with the
 support. I hoped other users - like jollyroger here - would grab the ball
 and run, come up with new ideas.

 > Once this is done, if you want to either make a "turnkey" installer, or
 add options to create/destroy masters, that can be another bug.

 I thought that was this bug.

 > Basically, I'm saying, let's keep it simple to start with.  Sound good?

 Sorry, but that's no good to me. I need something I can deploy quickly.
