Comment(by jhpalmieri):

 Jeroen: fortunately, the root repo doesn't track very many files, so its
 presence doesn't add a lot of files, maybe 40-50, but not hundreds.

 Volker: yes, updating is the issue. I would be happy if the root repo
 weren't part of an spkg, but then we would need to revise the way it's
 handled in updates.  To use bundles, would "sage -sdist" store a bundle
 file with the other spkgs, and then "sage -upgrade" would download it and
 apply it?
