Ok, but as I mentioned before we'd like to keep package names as short as possible, for two reasons: they will be included in symbol names in a compiled library, and because it's just easier to talk about "hgl-1.0" than it is to talk about "http://haskell.org/packages#hgl-1.0".
A trivial point, but one that could cause some pain if not addressed: this should become http://haskell.org/packages/hgl-1.0 (or possibly even http://haskell.org/packages/hgl/1.0), otherwise the "packages" page will get very large having to list every possible version of every possible package.
