There's an important case where we should have a way to at least comment the entry to 
a) let people know a version/system is no longer supported, or obsolete, or whatever
b) point to the 'proper' version, whatever that might mean at the time

This is a place where SqueakMap actually has a significant advantage of course, though 'us' being able to add notes about a package status could still be valuable.
