Yes, indeed at one point about 5 years ago I actually had a prototype that worked like this. I've asked users what they'd prefer a number of times, and the responses tended to be somewhat nervous, along the lines of "just don't mess with the simplistic nature of JSGME". It's hard to argue with that view, as that's the whole ethos behind JSGME.
Somewhere along the line I deleted that prototype, but it's only a day's work - just a few buttons and boxes and an ini file and it's done. The real concern though is compatibility/dependency. For example, the GWX installer (and a few others) looks for files that would no longer exist where they do now. And any application (such as S3D) that interacts with JSGME via system messages would need to be modified.
TBH I've put it in the "more serious pondering required" basket.
