Description:
The Windows installer does not provide the user to relocate the following daemons to other folders:

MySQL server
Apache server
Tomcat server

Advanced administrators are quite capable of making reasonable choices about where to place important daemons like these.

How to repeat:
Perform a windows installation.

Suggested fix:
Provide the option to customize the install locaion for the daemons listed above.

Re-verified with a fresh download of the 2.1.0.1096 installer.
