What is the proper method for managing Component GUIDs?  I have been bitten a 
few times with one installer where the file in a component has changed but the 
GUID was not, resulting in files being left behind during uninstall.

One method I am trying right now is to seed a guid seed on the directory and 
have the components that have files that change roughly for each installer 
generation use auto generated guids.  Since I have not really seen many 
examples showing this I am questioning if it is a good way to go.
