My concern is with "incremental upgrades instead of taking the largest leap
possible", which as I investigate seems to be related to the leftover bundle
in the user specific package cache.

When a user launches Bundle.exe 1.05 (and if 1.0.10 is available on the web
site, but if intermediate bundles were ever installed) then they have to
press the 'Update Available' button multiple times to march through each
cached intermediate bundle to get to the latest update.

Also if they do the above (so the latest, 1.0.10 is installed) and if they
launch 1.0.5 Bundle.exe again (say to uninstall) the uninstall and repair
buttons are hidden until they update to the latest.  (This is the same
behavior as the Wix toolset installer).  However now the user must click on
the 'Update Available' multiple times to march through the cached bundles,
before they get to the installed version, and the Uninstall or Repair
buttons are displayed.
