I started experimenting with a rewrite of the toolsets feature, which
added a "share" command.

You created toolsets in the normal way, and they were created in ~/.nuke/

Then there was a "share" button which had a mirror of the toolset list
(just like "delete"), which presented you with a list of writeable
locations on NUKE_PATH. When you clicked it, it moved the toolset to the
new location

I didn't finish it, other things came up, and it was complicated by also
trying to allow sharing to areas controlled by our asset-management system..
