I think the idea with using a GURPS/HERO point system would be to  
remove packages completely.

I think these two ideas (remove packages, point-based system) have  
great potential, and I'd like to see what Phil comes up with.

Also, AFAICT, that's part of the approach WEG was considering for Torg
