Wouldn't you normally just uninstall what you install? Those external drivers probably have a matching set

What you install depends on additional environment settings, which may have changed when you run uninstall. So I think you should install all things you possibly could have installed, but nothing else.

Note that in the case of /usr/local/share/lima and /usr/local/share/doc/lima we completely wipe the directories, which seems wrong too. At least for the docs it is conceivable that you want to install e.g. external plugin docs there too.

It is not clear to me if we support storing custom templates in /usr/local/share/lima/templates or not. There are alternatives though, like $LIMA_HOME/_templates or any directory on LIMA_TEMPLATES_PATH.
