Comment(by jhpalmieri):

 Questions: if you type `sage -i pkg`, should it first check spkg/standard
 (and spkg/optional, spkg/experimental) to see if there is a matching spkg,
 before trying to download something?  Or should it check version numbers
 to see if the on-line file is more recent?  If it checks first in
 spkg/..., then should there be an option to force downloading, or should
 we just assume that people will figure out what's going on and delete the
 local version if they want to download the spkg?
