- that issue can be sorted by linking the installer to mods, so
upgrade can take in account the existing installed features and
install them on the fly.

That another point that I planned to have solved in any case before 
1.9 release. I want to think and talk more about it, but my bet is
that existing features could be bundled in the mods repository present
in the 1.9 tarball.
