Thanks for this ideas! I think I'll implement it even simpler: the Installer 
will keep an eye on such cases and will propose to fix them. 

Your problem was specific because you were using quite old installer, which 
was affected too. All versions since November 13 are compatible so I hope most 
users have updated / will update it before upgrading QGIS. In future such 
changes in the 1.0 qgis line won't occur anymore.
