Title:
Image upgrade can remove preinstalled apps without notice

Bug description:
During an image upgrade last week the Notes app was removed from the
image, resulting in that app getting removed from my device
completely, I wasn't even sure my data was safe.
I imagine something similar could happen when a framework was dropped
during an upgrade.
Something should have told me the app is not going to be available
after the upgrade, why, and whether I can do anything about it.
Incompatible apps should probably be left around but unavailable to
launch, preinstalled apps should maybe just get installed for all the
users that had them already?
Or maybe preinstalled apps should just never get removed? Maybe they
should just be installed on first boot as any other click would, and
removing it from an image wouldn't do anything?
To save data, the preinstalled apps could be shipped in a writable
part of the image somewhere and the .click files removed after
installation?
