The good part is since only packages available in the installer will be logged, so the uninstaller wont be flooded with files that a "newbie" doesn't want to see.
The bad part is that installations via yast and zypper wont create this kind of log (and shouldn't, since if linux's kernel is updated with yast, it shouldn't appear in my newbie installer). On the other hand, those who rely on this app to uninstall shouldn't want to use yast.

Actually, afaik, ymp's store the packages to be installed, so it should be able to generate a database on installed ymps, and simply delete the packages and dependencies from that ymp
