InstallScript, RemoveScript, and DeletionScript

Warnings for RemoveScripts

Your RemoveScript should not try to access the templates or user protos of your application (remember, they are on the card that was just removed). If it attempts to do so, the user will get the dreaded "The card is still needed" slip. The application base view is still present when the RemoveScript is called, but the _proto slot of the base view still points at the (now-nonexistent) template--so don't try to use the base view, either.
