Support for 'local' or unpublished data? #32

I am wondering how well a bowerbird setup could work to define a central 'shared data' pool for a lab group. In addition to sharing raw remote downloads, I think it would often be useful to be able to add processed data in the bowerbird catalogue (i.e. this could be either independently collected data or merely 'processed' forms of existing bowerbird downloads). Maybe this is beyond the scope of bowerbird.

I hadn't even thought of that usage model! But not a bad idea at all. I'll have a crack at a "local" handler.
