Yep, I left this for later.

Uninstaller now removes them.

Monty fixed earlier, seems to be working fine.

Now checks errors, and aborts installation if it fails to write DQSD
entries. Problem is, I don't know how to rollback the installation, so the
user will be left with lots of installed files. The message mentions
installing as administrator is recommended, so when they do, everything will
be hooked up correctly, though.

Right, I think we should hold it off until the next major. People running as
non-admin can afford to ask DQSD-Users or check the FAQ if they get the
wrong theme... Could you write a blurb on this in the FAQ when we release?

I'm too tired to try and figure out how plug-ins work at the moment, but it
looks promising... Maybe later :)
