I don't see us doing that. If you want to supply extensions, just build them and drop them into edit-webapp/WEB-INF/lib, and you should have those extensions versioned and labeled appropriately for all sorts of reasons anyway.

Most source code added is almost certainly going to need additional libraries in many cases anyway, so you have to add those manually regardless.
