That's it. That's all I wanted to say. After downloading and uploading bunches of modules to learn what they do I started to think "it sure would be cool if Drupal had a repository system like Linux package managers." Then as if by magic I stumbled across the Plugin Manager Module and it was exactly what I wished for! I realize the module is still in development, but I would nominate it as the first Module to install even before CCK. Forgive me while i fantasize about what Drupal 10 core will look like....
