One of the things that annoy me is how many Configurations and Baselines
pollute the package space that are of little interest to the user. It
would be nice to group them and filter them out of Nautilus unless user
asks for them.

This is what AltBrowser does. All configurations are in a category named 'Configurations' and all Baselines are in a category named 'Baselines'. Unless you really search for it, you won't see it.

I really like this new approach great work.

It certainly help.

I have played a bit with extracting info from Configurations to classify automagically, but it doesn't work very well.

    Indeed.
    We will see what we get at the end but may be something like

          MyProject
          AnotherProject
          System
          LowLevel

    And people will not be overwhelmed by hundreds of nice packages. :)

    I think that touching package contents under the assumption that the
    package list is too long in the UI
    is the wrong way to look at the problem.
          Packages are unit of deployment and we need Projects - unit of
    knowledge. And the UI should shows both
          depending on the view we want to get.
