what does the bool arg for the completion_callback mean?  consider making a
typedef for the type base::Callback<void(bool)> where you document this.

Done.

nit: There's a convention to suffix funcs that must be called on a particular
thread with "OnFooThread", so please rename this to InstallAppHostOnFileThread. 
Perhaps other funcs should be similarly changed.

[huangs, 2012/10/24 18:52:45]

Done.  Changing my code only though.
