Yes, I really want to try and get to look into doing this. The thing<br>
is that multi-collection libraries are going to be a common case for<br>
plt packages (which will get pulled out from the main repository), but<br>
the single-collection ones are going to be the much more popular case<br>
elsewhere.<br>
<br>
(And I also still dream on doing some `url-in' to require a single<br>
file, since that's also an important mode of quick sharing. But<br>
that's another story.)<br>
