I'm not privy to the thought processes behind the packaging of the .exe and 
.zip downloads, but I don't like it, whatever it was.  I think all bits and 
pieces should be in all the packages.  The .exe installer could be made smart 
enough to detect the platform and JVM it's running on, and choose the 32- or 
64-bit service wrapper as appropriate.  The service.bat script would probably 
have to use a command line option to select 32- or 64-bit, but that's way 
better than the current state of affairs.

Patches are always welcome ;)

One would have to find things first in order to patch them. ;-)

Seriously, on the same principle as eating an elephant but tiny bits at a time, is there something that militates against adding the various tomcat.exe and tomcatw.exe to the zip distribution ? I'm willing to write a HowTo for Windows in the FAQ, but having in addition to direct people to these external links seems a bit extra-confusing.
