This is a cool idea from a programmers perspective, but I share the view with Anders. I like being able to open up an nsis installer and extract a file or two that I need.

Adding some sort of randomizing algorithm would appeal to crack writers as it would hide all the code and files from the user. This kind of goes against the philosophy of open source software, where everyone should be able to view and use the software and its source code with a fair amount of freedom.

There is nothing stopping you from forking the codebase and writing in this functionality yourself.
