Wouldn't it force a rebuild of the LCL etc., when only the packages are 
added to the project requirements?

Just a suggestion: can you provide a second lazarus-test project, that 
will not overwrite or otherwise affect the rebuild of the working 
version? Then every interested user can play with *that* project, and 
still can rebuild Lazarus using the normal procedures.
