Hmmm, that's not good, if we don't understand the installer mechanics and 
requirements...

I prefer simplicity. Are you saying that if the 0.6 installer finds another 
version (0.4, 0.5, 0.7, whatever), that it will stop and tell the user that 
they need to uninstall before they can install 0.6?
Annoying, yes, but it sure does keep things simple and straightforward.

Just my two cents,
