Making the distinction between a crawler and a client is probably not a 
good idea since it introduces two concepts instead of one simple one.

We have indexes and different ways to access them: What about having an 
"XMLRPCClient" and a "SimpleClient"?

In addition, having a simpler API, something like 
packaging.indexes.get_client('simple' OR 'xmlrpc') can be useful, but 
that's a different issue.
