Good point :)

I actually considered that - for french, dutch and english it wouldn't be 
much of a problem either - it's just that my german is too rusty for me to 
trust myself with the grammar (which, when talking, can be.. ehm.. "worked 
around" :)

hmm.. 

It would be annoying to see a perfectly good README disappear just because 
you uninstall another package..

I could just rename the thing for the package name.. or have it generated
by my package generation script or something.. (putting the file list
where it needs to be).

I'll ponder a bit more..
