I'm no expert, but would the use of something like Puppet make this job a lot easier? A consultant is suggesting that we consider that tool for this purpose. Define a particular set of packages in Puppet, and you can play around in your sandbox to your heart's content. When you want to get back to a particular configuration, let Puppet do that for you. It may be a little heavyweight for some projects, but I'd think that any project which needs stricter control could use this.

You can add it to the list on the wiki. Which known set of prebuilt packages are you thinking we should be able to build against?
