There are two new bundle recipe ANT tasks that have recently been 
implemented, in part due to community requests:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=609154

These do not download the content into the database, rather they use a 
remote repo that the customer provides.

As I said before (and Lukas just reiterated), it would be nice to better 
integrate the content source subsystem into the bundle subsystem (more 
so than what we do today) so we can reuse this feature of slurping in 
content from a remote repo.
