This sounds about right. I'd had plans to do some such thing, as for our workplace I created an installer plugin that basically does bits of dist and a bit more to create a tarball. Also, the SCM plugin has release type stuff in there that overlaps some with the release plugin. Rationalising all of this into dist + release-on-top-of-dist is a great thing. I'm happy to send you the installer plugin offline to add that content if you are working on this. Cheers, Brett
