So we're in the same boat if we start 'tagging' packages and/or if we just 
group them (which is essentially tagging from the other direction).


Let's take a step back. How do we group several thousand things such that 
they don't make the avg user lose his/her mind to look at them.

do we need groups of groups? A tree hierarchy the user can drill through? 
Font-sized tags like flickr/bloggers, etc?

I'm open to ideas, really. :)
