I think the only good solutions are an installer that does everything or no installer at all.

If you are going to do an installer, I should be able to log in directly after installation and everything should be up and running.

The alternative is to do nothing, and tell people to update config files themselves, but I am presuming that part of your target audience is non-technically minded (unlike CI target audience), so this would not be a good idea.

As for security, I would suggest a php installer that perhaps uninstalls itself once it has been run, and does not run if an install has already been run (in case it is not deleted). Or an alert appearing on the admin homepage saying 'install folder not yet deleted is a security risk' with a 'delete installer' button to unset the installation files.
