I don't want to change 0.6 except for Bugs.  Changing the name of the
main package is out of the question IMO.  It would also probably break
lots of user code, although that could be alleviated by a custom import
hook that converts "Sketch" to "Skencil" whenever necessary.

0.7 is a different matter, but unless we move the code to a version
control system like subversion that supports renaming of directories it
probably too much hassle.
