I agree.
I think we also need a notion of a canonical standard package for each popular category.
For some categories, it might be better to have a canonial standard *typeclass* and let various packages derive from that class. Cf. the Python DB-API (http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0249/) and WSGI (http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0333/).
