I can feel your pain and you're perfectly right about that (it should be considered a serious bug), but I've to admit that I always take all precautions imaginable (backups, uzw.) when un-installing a program.
I don't know what your OS is but in Vista and W7 jD can't be installed in the regular program files folder path.
Under Windoze settings are usually stored in the Documents and Settings folder path. This isn't true for jD. If you want to move your settings from one version or instance of jD to another you need to clear your Download queue, because otherwise you also move the links.
This is all weird, but one of the developers said that the advantage of this approach is the 'portability' of jD.
