   purl or xml could be done. I've no preference. purl parsing could be implemented as replacement of current parsing with more adhoc restriction. Not every protocol, not every repo.
   
   Concerning maven, I don't understand the need to put hash aside as they are in repo.
   As mentioned snapshot dependent on state of repo (hash may change)
   staged repo are fixed tag hash is fixed
   central repo hash is fixed.
   
   At the moment, to have launcher fix, or installer fix you need to fix hash for every adjustment. At the end you need a staged repo to make it works and vote need to pass before release otherwise you are out for next build.
   
   This is more a concern for native launcher,installer + profiler. They are our code, but cannot be osuol as it's should be released.
   
   Maybe others externals may benefit of that.
   And maybe npm could help for node related stuff.
