I'm not sure I understand your rationale.. A separate pear install is a
very specialised use-case and for the large majority of users simplifies
the process.  And as others have repeatedly said, pear packages ARE
tarballs, just ones you install with a pear command rather than tar.

If you don't like it, use git?
