Thank you for this suggestion. Unfortunately it makes no difference, whether you
delete the installation set or you remove it to another place. Both kills the
maintenance mode (I know, you do not like this maintenance mode ;-) ). During
installation process the Windows Installer service saves the information about
the source directory in the Windows registry. Therefore you are asked to insert
a CD, if your installation was done from a CD. If you move the files after a
successful installation to a directory, that the Windows Installer does not
know, they ar e useless. So we have to find a place, where we can unpack the
files of the installation set and where they can stay for a long time.
Additionally they have to be visible, so that everyone who knows what he does,
can remove them (for example people who do not like maintenance modes). 
You also suggested to use your proposed mechanism for installation sets on CD.
This is not our intention. Installation sets located on a CD do not have this
problem. They do not need NSIS. Please do not increase the problem by adding
NSIS to CD installation sets. Using a CD is very simple, because in maintenance
mode you are asked to insert the CD. No disc space on your hard disc is required
for the original installation set. This task is only relevant for download
installation sets.
