Would not programs like total uninstall or installrite provide this list,
as a result of using them during the first install?
For example, total uninstall provides a list of all registry changes,
additions, and deletions as part of its report which it keeps to execute
uninstalls. True, the list is not in the convenient form of an sh type
file that you can just import into the registry.
I too thought it would be nice to retain an sh file containing, for
instance all of a programs optional settings, stored in the registry.
Then when upgrading to a new version of the program you could just
import your chosen settings back into the registry, unstead of manually
picking them again in the new instance of the executable. Providing:
the new executable does not use some new registry structure or values
and data, and the installer for the upgrade is not smart enough to
leave the old settings alone.
