"Single-click install"
----------------------

* THIS FEATURE IS NOT SUPPORTED IN THE IT 2006 RELEASE:
*
* You get some useful reaction out of the Application Manager when you
* give it a .install file, but the associated dialogs are not
* localized, for example, and the IT 2006 Application Manager doesn't
* handle .install files very gracefully. But feel free to try anyway.
Indeed, aflegg, that seems to be an improvement when it eventually is in usable state.
But, indeed, you are correct that there is/will be a better way of installing than having end users enter the repositories themselves.
