I'd like to point out a problem with the existing #9 final criterion, which reads:"	• The installer must be able to install into free space alongside an existing clean single-partition Windows installation and either install a bootloader which can boot into the Windows installation, or leave the Windows bootloader untouched and working."

It seems the "single-partition" requirement has been unreasonable for a long time, since Windows 7/8 OEM installations are multi-partition, and if the disk partition is erased and Windows 7/8 is re-installed on an unpartitioned disk, it creates multiple partition installations.
