You CAN install her or any of her morphs or future morphs to an external runtime. As Farside said, it's only the !Daz library folder that needs to be in the Poser main runtime, JUST LIKE V3.

V3 doesn't require her !DAZ files to be in the main runtime in either Poser 6 or Poser 7. There was an issue with P5 but it was resolved in later versions. And yes, information has since been released in the DAZ forums that only the !DAZ files need to be in the main runtime (but it's not what they said initially).
However, when installing additional V4 content, its !DAZ files must be put in the same place as V4's: in the default runtime. This either requires manual movement of the files (blegh) or installing the whole shebang into the default runtime as well (bloats it, slows down Poser start up as mentioned by Farside also). Not to mention you ahve to run an additional batch file to make the thing work for every piece of morph content for it that you install. The main point is why are they making things harder to use instead of easier?
Edit: Yep, anton, they finally gave her a separate brow material. That's the one nearly redeeming feature of this .1 release...
