I'm the CEO of allmyapps. Needless to say I 100% agree that it is how installing & managing apps should have been on Windows 7! We are on our way to v2 now... let me show you a screenshot of the upcoming version [1] (it is a HN exclusivity btw!)

While the current version (1.5) is .NET/WPF based, we've switched to full C++/Webkit for v2. Results are impressive: launch <2s even on the crappiest PC we could find, <40Mb of memory footprint... and, best of all, the UI is just "fast and fluid"(tm).

That actually does look better, thanks for showing.
