To shift discussion from question of preferences... Is it good

Sorry to hijack your question with my rant Andrei :)
I'd say yes. A well behaved Application is one that can be dragged
into an Applications folder on a new machine and just work.
Semantically the application should behave as if it was just
installed - i.e. plugins &c may be lost in the process.
