What about just adding versioning to the backend bundle ?

backend-1.0.6.bundle
backend-1.4.5.bundle

The GUI library could just load the highest numbered one, or, if a certain
user default is set, the specified one.

Then you can very easily install multiple versions and play with versions.  
It also seems to give some sense to the whole 'bundle' concept.
