PEAR application framework

I am sure I am not the only one who is interested in there one day being a PEAR application framework package(s). I am wondering who else has been thinking about this and if anyone is working on such a project. I would like a system that glues together the best of the best packages of PEAR. This would include a Templating package(Smarty? IT?), Auth package (probably LiveUser and something more simple for sites that don't need LU), database abstraction (MDB + MDB_Query_Tool), QuickForm, some XML stuff, SOAP, the MAIL API, etc. I am thinking that the glue that could pull this together would be a base module class that provides a consistent API for having pages interact with the packages listed above. There may even be a good way to have dependencies and some sort loadable module support. I understand that what I am describing is similar to projects like MVC.php, but there is a sense of security in PEAR and the PEAR process. Has anyone else been mulling this over? Has anyone began work on such a project? Is this a stupid or immature idea?
