One thing to consider is that with OSG, we can consider merging "real" 
aircraft, and their AI counterparts back into a single aircraft (IIRC, LOD 
management is much better in OSG than it was in PLIB). Therefore, one possible 
strategy would be to keep only those liveries that have a real world 
counterpart, and store the "personalized" ones at a separate download site.
