I would also like to have an automatically created and decent file 
structure - just like BeBits categories; so not just all apps in /boot/
apps/, but:
/boot/apps/internet/
/boot/apps/audio/
..

Furthermore, we could have /boot/apps/vendor/ with symlinks to the 
installed application of a certain company/developer. Of course I am 
not sure what the benefit of this would be :-)

I think you get the idea - I am a bit annoyed to have to organize the 
applications in a useful and logical way all by myself.

Adios...
   Axel.
