I think you just described ActiveState's Perl Package Manager (PPM).

I lived under the expression that it is:
* for windows only
* only includes Foo-Bar, but not it's dependecies
It will auto-install dependencies just like CPAN, I believe. And,
yes, it's currently Windows-only. Didn't you offer bonus points for
Windows??
