Me three. I'm considering CouchDB precisely because it now supports windows officially but having to run an installer can be a hassle for users. They might not even have the right privileges. An "unzip and run" type of scenario is much better (Eclipse comes to mind) and gives the possibility of taking my db with me in my thumb drive. That would be fantastic.
