Description

It would be nice to have Version meta-data in installer so Windows knows the version.
Cf. attachment to understand what I mean.
May be defined by setting the register value HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Groovy-%VERSION%\DisplayVersion to the version of groovy installed (BTW, I didn't find the Windows packager in the Groovy git repositories when I was trying to fix this and provide a patch).
Version Information would be also nice to have product information in exe installer.
