Thanks! Technically you're the 3rd (or 4th) person to 
mention this, so it's a known issue. I just haven't filled 
out a bug tracker on SourceForge about it. Sorry! :-/ (Feel 
free to fill out a tracker if you want.)

I'm going to be looking into this within the next week or 
so with my installation software, to see if it's capable of 
doing this.

Thanks again!
