There are two cases of "bundles stored in the repository": (1) The
bundle archive used internally by the OSGi framework and (2) bundles
provided to framework for installation/update.

The former case will probably never be implemented as it is complicated
and may create race conditions. In addition, it does not make much
sense.

The latter case is certainly a valid value proposition: Consider
uploading bundle jar files into a specific location -
e.g. /system/bundleinstall - a special service could pick the bundles up
and install them into the framework. This helps keeping all sling
instances on each node at the same level.

In fact such a service exists as a quick hackup in [1] (a working hackup
btw).
