This is how it works in Windows, but it makes no sense on Linux.
Specially as our registry is a toy registry, it does not support global
registration and it would still require work (as we discussed on irc).

Not to mention that it would probably conflict with MS.NET
implementation on Windows.

I do not want a Registry-based eventlog registration system, we have
Unix ways of doing this.
