I consider these to be orthogonal.
You need multiple install locations to let package.el manage additions
in site-lisp, and also (maybe -- there are some questions here) the
load-path for packages which are included with Emacs but also released
separately.
So suppose Emacs starts up and sees, say, 3 versions of gnus: one
included in Emacs, one in site-lisp, and one in ~/.emacs.d/elpa/.
Which one should be activated?
Right now the obvious answer would be the newest one -- but Stefan wants
to let the user pick a specific one. So, I think we'll need a bit of
additional metadata about this.
