Enable app installation to SD card

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Quite a few people have asked me for a feature allowing the app to be installed 
to SD card.

I found this tutorial on it: 
http://mobile.tutsplus.com/tutorials/android/move-to-sd-card/

Does it look sound?

Per conversations on the list, we need to figure out how to address the issue 
of a Service running from the SD. Android docs specifically recommend *not* 
running apps from the SD if they have a Service because if the SD card is 
removed or changed to USB-Drive mode then the app will stop and cannot be 
automatically restarted.

Open conversation. Moving to backlog.

would be much better to move this (and just about all apps) to the SD card IMHO
