The fact that it currently needs to dug out of the main data archive
rather than the control archive to show the user changes at install time
seemed like a decent reason to move it, but that was assuming that the
file would still end up being visible in the same place in the end.

If that were not the case then I think it would be more trouble than
it's worth.

Cheers, Phil.
