Would it make sense to develop the GRASS Extensions Manager in

I think that this is open to all GRASS contributors.
The program/script should be non-distructive, well tested, documented

Here it should be of general interest to the GRASS community,
non-distructive, and well tested + documented. It also has
to conform to the SUBMITTING rules.
