still I have one concern:
Imagine you did a lot of changes in the "All configuration" section, hit 
the "Write to localconf.php" button and all you get is some error 
message, because the ENABLE_INSTALL_TOOL file expired in the meantime. 
This is something that might annoy people.

Just an idea: would it be really hard to enable the install tool if the 
file exists _or_ an admin user is logged in?
