another little question regarding packages.
The "name"-field in the PackageInfo-files doesn't allow whitespace, and for 
current packags, is always lowercase.
Would it be possible to also have another "pretty name" field for showing to 
the user, allowing whitespace etc?

Yes, the introduction of a display-name attribute is planned. Will probably be done when we (or anyone else) get to adding localization support, given that this is also a field that should be localizable (like summary and description).
