Feature request: Distribute Windows version as a ZIP file

It would convenient for some users to have GHC for Windows available as a 
ZIP file (i.e. not just as an MSI file). The Windows Installer is disabled 
on many systems, such as in University computer labs and corporate 
workstations. I discovered this when my laptop died and I tried to download 
and run GHC on a computer in my university's lab. AFAICT, there is no simple 
way to extract the files out of an MSI file.
 Thanks,
Brian
