i think #2 is the appropriate strategy. the cosmo components can be
revisited, but for they most part they seem to work okay. i wouldn't
just adopt the existing scooby ones wholesale though. they seem to be
far too granular. i imagine it would be very confusing for somebody
who is not an existing scooby developer to choose a component when
submitting a bug report. i think there should be fewer components, and
those that make the cut should correspond to major user-visible
sections of the product, not to architectural or design components.
