Unless we can agree on the Journal becomes the place to manage bundles — 
something I thought was a future desire/hope — I'd vote for separating Journal 
bundle deletion from the activity uninstall step.

However, we have UX reports from deployer/deployments that home list view is 
confusing users (they think they are in the Journal; they are expecting the 
home ring and are now lost). One obvious solution (Walter already raised this) 
would be to remove list view and manage activities from the Journal. All 
installed activities would need to show up in the Journal for management, we'd 
need an obvious way to quickly filter for them, favourite/un-favourite them, 
and add the various safeguards to prevent their unintentional/unwanted erasure. 
There's at least one deployer who seems strongly against this use of the 
Journal each time it is raised (argument is if the user didn't create it, it 
shouldn't be in their Journal).
