Portable execution - please unbundle the install

It's great news that OpenCPN will now have a portable execution option. In the free world, programs are not "lashed" to their OS, but I won't digress...

Can OpenCPN be delivered to us in a .zip file, instead of the "bundled" .exe file which enforces the Microsoft application installation limitations upon us?

Great open source programs that include MS Windows platforms, such as Gimp, allow users just this sort of freedom and flexibility.
