Try Extensions Manager on ftp.apple.com.  Though sometimes it's *very slow*
(Anyone else notice this?)

Aliases sound remove the need for Launch.  Check out The AliasBOSS, a very
useful program which will scan drives for files of type APPL (or anything else)
and create aliases for them, putting them anywhere you want.

(The AliasBOSS was on mac.binaries awhile ago, and is probably on sumex).
