[TxMt] GetBundle questions

[Sebastian Gräßl]

Hi Oliver,

First the GetBundle uses CocoaDialog for the notification, not Growl,  
maybe in future versions there will be a Growl notification if Growl  
is installed.

It installs the Bundles into the users Library just because you  
installed it, not the other user. Also, maybe there will be an option  
to install it for all users or just for the current.

The GetBundle installs just bundle-versions "secure" for the  
installed TM Version, so the GetBundle doesn't need to update the  
Support folder. If you update the Support folder manually and also  
install bundles with the GetBundle there can be conflicts.
