FWIW I hadn't forgotten about this feature request, although I hadn't got around to implementing it yet. I haven't tested your patch but if I read it correctly you are writing the scripts out underneath the "value =" lines in the package data file. My concern with doing this is that it makes those files more difficult to parse. I had thought that the way to do it would be to write these scripts to separate files (e.g. latest.pkg_prerm, latest.pkg_postrm etc.). Would that be OK?
