IMP is shaping up to be quite an important and integrated part of SMGL, just
like Sorcery and Cauldron.

On the other hand we have other projects like Quill, Enthrall and Castfs.
While these projects are useful, they can be dispelled or switched off.

I think that's probably the best way to divide projects: can they be disabled
without affecting usability.

Cauldron is vital to be able to install SMGL, once installed the box will not
work without sorcery or the grimoire and soon IMP will be required to manage
init scripts.

I suggest we group these other projects together without making them 
components.
