I was poking around with target provisioning and exporting and discovered that 
the normal Collect phase does not fetch binary thing (e.g., exectuables, root 
files, ...).  Looking at Repo2Runnable  it seems that considerable work has 
been done to create a custom CollectNatives phase taht is run in addition to 
the normal Collect phase.  Looking at the standard Collect phase code it seems 
to defer to the touchpoints.  Not sure why the touchpoint is involved in 
fetching the bytes but could  we have the Native touchpoint contribute a 
Collect action to do the right thing?

How does this work for normal installs?  Clearly using the standard director 
app the roots and executables get fetched.  What is different here?
