Whats needed so far is a separate tar-archive delivering it. A problem not solved that way is the info. `color-theme' for example is quite another item than python. If a branch contains up to hundred el-files then, how to document and/or explain the matter? A step forward maybe would be a closer integration of already existing stuff: presently, if python-mode is on, it knows nothing about doctest-mode...
