Thanks for your response. Looks like I didn't miss anything, then, save for some of those discussions you mention (I recall seeing some a long while ago, but ironically I had thought I'd recalled seeing someone mention more recent versions of PackageMaker being used for making uninstallers--guess I was wrong!!!).
I suppose, then, that I'll have to include a Perl script with my distributions for uninstallation, à la Apple's Developer Tools.
LANRev's Installease can make an uninstaller by looking at the contents of an existing package. It basically just compiles a list of the files and lists them in a postflight script that gets added to a payload-less package.
