Full ACK, this is quite critical IMO as the raw package list already 
provides less than an optimal overview. There are enhancement requests 
for these in the dub-registry issue tracker [1]. If anyone wants to help 
out, this is probably one of the most rewarding areas right now (I'll 
eventually get to it, but things are very busy here).
