Definitely important and good idea.

For me, especially no.5 is interesting. It won't be easy, because there is many systems with many different packaging strategies and even more managers. It will take quite some work to cover at least the main POSIX systems. On unsupported systems we will have to fallback to copying files. Also, some managers (e.g. Arch Linux pacman) require to be started with root permissions, so it doesn't really solve the access problem.

Anyway, count with my help with the packaging systems I'm familiar with Wink
