In order to use a native app in Windows, we have to create Windows registry keys that tell Mozilla/Firefox where the native app is located, the name of the native app, etc. We also have to copy files on the user's system to that location. Is there a standard installer for native apps that we should use? I currently have a batch file that creates a folder, copies files, and registers the Windows registry keys.

Instructions for submitting the add-on indicate that we should zip certain standard files, but there does not appear to be dedicated discussion about packaging the native app components.
