Do whatever is easiest and quickest.  Right now OpenPacket doesn't
exist except in our dreams.  Just get *something* out there that is
usable and worry about adding features later.  Until you get enough
momentum and pcap's where people have to search for them, this feature
isn't critical.

Once people start using the site, I'm sure you'll get all sorts of
requests and suggestions which will help set priorities and
requirements.
