1. can we download all the components altogether at the end? People
seem to like select, select, select, download (take a coffee break),
better than select, download, select, download, select download,
becuase they have no excuse for coffee.

2. I personally prefer a lyx group with uninstall icon. The windows
uninstall page takes ages to populate.

3. ask whether or not uninstall automatically downloaded  components
during uninstallation.

4. For the minimal installer, use more links to ensure downloading.
Using ftp.lyx.org/public/contrib seems to be a good idea. Ideally,
these files will never be downloaded so this will not increase traffic
to www.lyx.org/

5. please add in INSTALL.win32 instructions on building the bundled
installer. A public zip file like bundled-3rd-party-applications (like
the qt4 deps package) would be good. I will add 'scons installer
bundled=true' later.

Note that there are minimal installers for lyx snapshots at
http://www.lyx.org/~bpeng .

Thanks.
Bo
