Someone asked me to write the opposite of that (App->Package) as a right click tool or something like that... I should get on that before applications work 100% in task sequences! :-)
Package -> App seems easy enough also. The detection method would be blank (ok, it would be a script detection that didn't do anything) but otherwise it'd be a fully functional application. John, you only write packages, no applications? I've seen most places write everything as an application and then just convert the stuff they need in OSD to packages.
