Summary: Implement BundleBuilder GUI as plugin component

Initial Comment:
On Wed, 19 May 2004 10:53:42 +0200, Jack Jansen writes on 
PythonMac SIG:

"In a future release I'd like to add a GUI interface to 
bundlebuilder, so you can gradually migrate from save as applet 
to bundlebuilder without the current steep learning curve."


Here's a few suggestions on how this might ideally be 
implemented:

- Would it be possible/practical to construct this as, say, a plug-
in component rather than a standalone executable? That way 
IDEs could incorporate it directly, bringing up the BB dialog when 
the user selects 'Save as Applet...'.

- Arranging the window so that 'Advanced' options are initially 
hidden behind one of those disclosure triangle thingies would 
keep it easy to use when folk just want to spit out a generic 
applet.

- Also, it'd be good to provide 'BBGUI' as a separate module to 
the original BB module so that scripts and applications wanting to 
use BB's programmatic interface aren't made to import 
unnecessary GUI toolkit modules.
