Hi,
For context, the Groovy bundle is *supposed* to do two things:
1) Make it "groovier" to work with Sling. I intended to add some
expando metatype stuff to enhance the JCR and Sling APIs when using
Groovy and just never got around to it.
2) Add a GSP scripting engine.

To my original thinking, #1 was an "extension" (although I'll grant
that this mostly relates to scripting, so this was probably not well
thought out, but hey... it was 2010).

If we're going to move it and rename it, let's do it now before the
first release.
