In my opinion, GNUstep is already somewhat like that. If you ignore the semantic debate about where things go, and what they're named, you end up with this. GNUstep *itself* could be considered the "Frameworks" or "Development" package. ProjectCenter and Gorm, as much as they may be a part of the "GNUstep Project", I don't consider them a part of "GNUstep". They would be the "Developer Tools" package. And, just to use more quotation marks, GNUMail.app is a part of the "GNUstep Project", but fits into the "User Apps" category.
So, that format seems to exist already, but is covered over by a blanket term of "The GNUstep Project".
(NOTE: Yes, I love parenthetical comment and using "quotation" marks... sorry about that. ;))
