Allow for package promotion model / Off-Board package Transfer linking
Similar to modern code versioning databases such as Github and Subversion; it would be great to have the ability to do basic version control and promotion. It looks like the existing Off-Board Package Transfer segment would be a good starting point in that it allow for items to be exported from one SDA to a location off box that can then be copied to an alternate SDA. Similar to how the export screen is able to tell if a file present in the restore location is out of date or current, i'm thinking this could easily be adapted to also tell if something is a newer version as well. Example use case would be, multiple SDAs deployed in your environment, one of which is dedicated for development / testing of actions outside of units otherwise designated for production. When a task or system image has been validated as functioning as expected it could then be exported to this off-board location which the other SDA appliances could then recognize contains a newer version and allow for ease of import.

Packages can be imported/exported between appliances already.
