OK, now I better understand what you are writing about.

To you it is a pre-packaged product. To the developers of this product
it is a custom product that has an architecture. Every application is
custom according to someone. I think that is what this thread is about.
Developing a new product with an architecture that is easy to deal with
when installing/integrating/modifying.
