well, we do that in a number of applications.

(lazy installers are really cool... if you've installed works,
you've seen some weird stuff -- for example, when the
application starts the first time, it's loading everything
from inside the installer.  the rest of the installation is
done from within the application itself, using archives
in the installation executable)

I think things like this are better left for the application
designers, though...
