I would suggest having enhancements be optional installations akin to
Plug-Ins or Extensions.

One of the big contributors is the .PSD import... it essentially contains
the Photoshop rendering engine. Color management, type libraries, things
like that were other big additions.

That said, I'm in a meeting right now where we're talking about improving
the installation experience for the next generation... the installation *is*
pretty big right now, and we're looking for ways to provide similar
capabilities at lower cost in the future.
