Base ones should probably be LGPL or MPL IMHO (or X licensed) so that an app
can always get some functionality

Add license tags.

When a user tries to embed a component embed one that is ok on the license
tag rules. So a GPL app would get the GPL supercool one (if that existed)
and the rest of the apps get the first compatible fallback
