True. Most of this is because Vim's version actually relies on an
included binary executable that does some of the configuration.

I'm curious what these are, how does it know what to do? Do you have
to select the language from the list or does it detect language
somehow from the environment?

Our gvim installer without Cream has both. But we don't include it
with the Cream one since they are not compatible. (Besides, vim in a
Windows Command Prompt is flakey at best according to the help.)

Not at all, although I'm not certain all the utility of the binary
installer can be reproduced in NSIS.

If you can help me pinpoint exactly what is missing, we may be able to
fix things. We don't ever want to leave users out in the cold, but
sometimes there are a lot of dependencies to make something work.
