One possibility for adding extensibility is to create a Monticello UI
using the StarBrowser. In KomPackageBuilder I created a hacked the DVS
UI to do more things and I'll probably want to do something similar with
the Monticello (but probably using the StarBrowser). Having a
StarBrowser UI for managing packages and repositories would be a very
easy was to get an extensible UI for Monticello. For something familiar
with both, it would be very simple to do.
