While we're on the subject, lots of authors include a README.TXT file
in a ZIP file along with the app.  Any interest in calling it
something else?  Perhaps READ-abc.TXT or my-app.txt?  It you're like
me and end up extracting everything into the Pilot add-on directory to
simplify installs, you end up manually renaming bunches of README
files.

Not a big thing, but life is short.  (I'm saving up those 10 second
snippets of time to buy an extra vacation day at work.)
