I didn't see the -d option.  That does most of what I need right there. 
Spiffy.

I agree, that some sort of UI that I could manage eggs and versions with

I would like to be able to keep these eggs out of the "distribution"'s
directories, though.  Since I don't want things being replaced on
upgrade, etc.
