In this case we'd have to custom name our ZIPs (EQI maybe?) and associate them with the UIInstaller. Since the UIInstaller can already take command-line variables (that's how drag-and-drop works) it could be set to accept files directly from the IE/Mozilla Open feature.

That would remove the issue of having to package the Installer with the mods.
