Hmm... then I would argue that the other jailbreaks are not carefully written.

Yifan Lu's first jailbreak installed exactly one file.
My jailbreak installed exactly that same file, so it can be uninstalled using the original uninstaller (side note: the "reset to english" is a non-issue, because as of now, a non-jailbroken KT cannot have been localized yet, so I'm in fact overwriting the locale file with an identical version; and even if it was, it would be trivial to localize it again).

I haven't tested the other jailbreaks, but since the whole purpose of the jailbreak is to install that one key file, I argue that the installers have to clean up after themselves so as to only leave that single file behind. And if they do, then... well, the original uninstaller can be used for either of them
