Oh also "adb shell dumpsys package" will tell you more than you probably
want to know about the installed packages.

What if I simply want to uninstall an application that I've installed
and I don't remember it's full package name?
There is a way to list what files are inside data/app/?

Great idea!
Uninstall the music app to install your own. Then uninstall the mail
app and install another one. Uninstall the phone app and install
something else entirely. Finally, uninstall Android and install
Windows Mobile. Cool!

I would suggest you don't even try to uninstall any other applications.
Your application should not mess with other applications the user has on
their 'phone. You will most likely see a huge user backlash once they
discover your app has uninstalled other applications that they chose to
put on
I do not think you can uninstall system apps (for good reasons).
User applications are installed under /data/app or app-private (which is
writable), while system apps are under /system/app, which is ro.
The way to deal with this is to respond to the same intents: so if you app

That's not possible. If your application responds to the right
intents, the user will be offered a choice when doing an action that
can be handled both by the built-in application and by your
application.
