I know this is kinda of a lame idea, but maybe you could make the lite version with nothing installed, and just have people intall stuff from the repo? Cuz I wanted a lite version just for multitasking, so I deleted the folders, installed backgrounder and curcuitios (as well as thier dependancies), and I now can run 12 apps and only then be below 30mb free mem. I was thinking this would be good to cover all bases for a lite version. I idle around 75 mb after I free mem when I'm done multitasking. So, maybe put the modded curcuitios in the repo for people who want a free memory tool and stuff as an example of what to put.
I don't know, I'm thinking this would be good for people who only want one or two things and such, and for that to work really well. (backgrounds, folders, multitasking, activator, etc)
