I have downloaded JDK 7 Source from http://www.java.net/download/jdk7/jdk-7-ea-src-b03-jrl-30_nov_2006.jar and ran the installer simply clicking the file in the Windows Explorer. After accepting License Agreement the dialog asking destination directory was appeared.
I have selected the "C" drive then I have entered "ja" meaning that i wish to select "C:\Java", when Java has been selected I have pressed "Enter" button meaning that I wish to go into "C:\Java". Instead installation process has been launched (but the "Install" button has not been highlighted). There was no cancel button, so a lot of files have been copied to the inappropriate location. No uninstaller is provided so I must delete this files by hand sorting them by creation date.
It is well-known, expected, behavior of file/folder select dialog to go into folder by Enter. So most part of users will install the sources in the directory they do not want. This can annoy.
