uninstalling TortoiseOverlay

According to the Dumentation.exe, the tortoise client's installer
"must not deinstall" TortoiseOverlay:

'''
   If you have a non-msi installer, you can call the msi installer
like this:
   msiexec /i TortoiseOverlays-1.0.0.XXXX-win32.msi /qn /norestart
   But in that case, you also must not deinstall it when your client
gets
   deinstalled.
'''

I am not familiar with msi installer, but doesn't the reference
counting take care of that?

The problem I see here is that the users will need to manually
deinstall TortoiseOverlay (assuming there's only one tortoise client
using TortoiseOverlay), in order to make room for other tortoise
clients that do not use TortoiseOverlay.
