Maybe for now we could do the minimal check for changes in the site directory or changes to the etc files and giving a warning?  Even if that check isn't 100% complete, it will solve a lot of trouble for people.

We could file a ticket to remind ourselves to go back later and see if there are any other situations where we should warn.  I just know that myself and the other guys at OSU have run into the "forgot to install" problem multiple times when updating scripts in the site directory.
