As far as I know, all of them that come with the normal base system are
indeed Installed, and none of them are given the /SHARE qualifier.

At least one reason they are installed is because of the check the image-
activator makes on privileged images that reference them:

  "Shareable images must be installed to run privileged image"

I found this out the hard way - I deinstalled one that Install itself
references - lo and behold, *no way* to put it back :-)
