Why is POVRay for Windows 3.7 now being installed into C:\Documents and 
Settings\Username\Application Data\POV-Ray\v3.7\ ?

As I regularly build very large datasets with POV, I have always 
installed my POVRay into a secondary harddrive (D:). Now it appears with 
the current Beta installers I get no control over where it is installed. 
I now have two competing POV directory structures!

Is this a temporary situation for the Betas or is it the future scheme 
for 3.7... if so why?
