I was interested in doing this, but I wanted to wait for the file
manager to be released to see if it could be done as some sort of
mode of the file manager.  You know, drag an RPM from a directory
onto the RPM database entry, and so forth.  I think the combination
of the VFS and some magic could make this really easy.  If I were
you that's where I would start.
