All works good. I thought one thing could be modified to make a better 
visual feedback to user. Line where you tell user that configuration 
will be available may look like:

--------------------								$this->content.= '<img ' . 
t3lib_iconWorks::skinImg($GLOBALS['BACK_PATH'], 'gfx/icon_warning.gif', 
' width="18" height="16"'). ' alt="" align="absmiddle" />This extension 
provides additional configuration options which become available once 
you install it.';
--------------------

+1.
