Thumbs down from me.
Think this should be an enhancement script only.

I can think of a lot of better uses for an already compressed 237k that uncompresses out to about 1MB.  For example, gcombust is only 140k uncompressed including a desktop icon.

Maybe an install script would be a better option.

Without sounding too Microsfotyish (is that a word?), my vote for a new game would be some kind of multiple card game program like xpat2.

Klondike Solitaire + much more.  But I assume that size issue is such that it is not worth adding at the expense of some other application like a bitorrent client, for example.

Well, first of all bzip2 is much slower than gzip - so slow as to make cloop with bzip2 just about unusable. It's not a case of choosing gzip or bzip2 anyway, as cloop compresses everything, and changing cloop compression would bring a whole host of problems, such as alienating all those who are trying to do remasters.
I'd go for an enhancement script myself.
