Thanks Ken. I updated the repo after your suggestions. I also made the 
package list show version numbers. However, I made revision number to 
autoincrement the moment a package gets dirty, not on save. I think it 
is better this way. Besides, if you increment major version number (from 
an inspector so far!), the intended version number is actually used 
(otherwise it would be modified again on save).

I couldn't help it, so I also did some cleanup in CodePackage :)

Still missing features include incrementing the major version number, 
and showing and editing dependencies.

Cheers,
