The only problem I can see with this feature is how to design a usable UI.  Have you ever cursed these extra clever address forms that make you select a state from a drop-down list of 50 if not a country from the list of 100+?  A text field with auto-completion/correction and validation would be the best, but may get cluttered if multiple modules are affected.  We actually have similar usability issue with the nosy list.  The + button was a great addition, but I would also like to see a user list integration that would allow me to add other by real name or by approximate username spelling.

Despite the nosy list's issues, I think it is actually a better model here than the components list.

That is:

Cheers, Nick.
