I agree here.
However I would like to increase both PECL and PEAR positions. Putting
the 2 logos, highlight PECL packages and provide a filter (which can be
automatically set based on the url as you said) may be a good way.
The filter can be in the search/category selects and in the left side
menu.
We fought the past months to put PEAR/PECL in front of the scene, this
should be just another step forward for PEAR/PECL (PECL/PEAR ;), not
only PECL.
