One of the things I am worried about is situations like when the system

Additions following our instructions, and then the system does some

result is not very pretty.
The additions installer could detect if the distribution package is installed
and offer to remove it.
Cleanest way would be for the installer to install it as a native
package for the distro, either replacing the same package with a newer
version, or as a different package ("virtualbox-guest-official")
advertising conflicts with the distro's own packages
(virtualbox-guest-{dkms,source,utils}), and let the distro's packager
handle it.
