Actually I think for some stuff we should do more of our own snapshot
hosting. It's not only about removing dependencies, it's also about
having a defined state of the code used by the spell. Pure SCM spells,
i.e. spells that always pull out of some scm should really be the
exception, at least for anything related to the core system like the
above things.
