No problem on this.

As users noticed with some emails in the past, the standard installation of
GeoServer as a Windows Service doesn't allow to see the GDAL native libs
(when available) and then there is no GDAL formats support. After
investigation, I have found a solution for this (See [1]) and I have added
it to the geoserver's doc. Honestly, I don't know how the installer works
with extensions and optional elements. A look on the solution can give you
better details on what I have found and what the installer could perhaps do.

Hope this helps. Let me know if you need additional info.
Daniele
