mkSpec is *only* for native packages.

mkProject takes the data from mkSpec to create visual studio project files.  My 
V1 tools (that I built as part of my gsToolkit project) was one single tool to 
do this, but it became far too unweildly, and didn’t allow for some of the 
intelligence that I wanted.

Any significant work with shallow forking requires the use of 
trace/mkSpec/mkProject.

mkSpec isn't necessary for native packages, right?
Wouldn't it make more sense to first focus on mkProject such that we can get 
started shallow-forking simple projects that don't need mkSpec and tracing?
