Nice!

Perfectly reasonable (if anyone needs this support, they are welcome
to look into it).

Currently there is no way: we started it as an internal queue but
I remember thinking that at some point someone will want to submit
something there. I guess that time has come.

I don't want to jump into this just yet (we are in the middle of
trying to wrap up the major features for the next release), but
I've added a note to look into it. In the meantime, I can queue
it for you if your would like.

Please go ahead and add whatever you want to package. You are also
welcome to work on it in your own workspace and transfer it later
or start straight in build2-packaging (we usually do the latter).
