Installers for systems that use other installation philosophies is actually a bad idea. For Linux, the right choice is .rpm and .deb and supporting the already present Windows installer (by providing a .msi) seems more logical that reinventing the wheel every time (and the software list in the Windows control center is missing some information for those like the installed size).
