From an entirely selfish point of view this would be great, keeping the 
duplicated code in sync is a pain and feels wrong.
At the moment the only 2 areas we extend are the server bundle and the 
usermanager bundle.
Most of the usermanager bundle is about performing actions post user or group 
creation, what I should spend some time doing is having a look at this and 
seeing if it cant be hooked in via sync events, so that we can revert to the 
Sling bundles.
