Hey Lance, I already gave you this answer on the jcr user list, don't know if you saw it because you haven't responded since...
Seeing as you are going to use Sling, have you looked at Composum[1]. It has all the features you need from CRX, it makes packages, it has a repository browser, it has user management... It has MIT License and will even be included from the upcoming release of Sling, version 9, on.
