This will require the Nulecule spec to be radically updated, to
describe a group of applications, like docker compose does, rather
than just specifying where the artifacts are.

I think Nulecule could be something like libcloud[1] in the container
ecosystem. And, that's a value add people like me are looking for,
rather than just a package manager.
