Ouch - I don't recommend this.
Basically Merlin maintains two repositories - one repository is for
merlin's own internal usage - that's the ${merlin.home}/system path.
The ${merlin.repository} property can be updated to refer to a different
application repository. Mixing the application repository with the
system repository IMHO not a good idea - instead - just point
${merlin.repository} to somewhere new or clear the existing app
repository.

LOL
Actually - I think there is a need for providing application bundling -
Alexis has been doing something like this with the OpenIM stuff and I
figure we could generalize things and add support via magic for this.
Maybe someone would like to post a feature request in JIRA (hint, hint).
