That functionality comes from my 5.0.x hacks. I've been using that one for
quite some time now (also in my 5.1.x branch). Are you sure it had been merged
right in launchpad?
The only quirk, as far as I remember, was that base_module_quality could have
had some bugs with multiple addons paths.

From my conf (all this time):
addons_path = /home/panos/build/openerp/addons/,
/home/panos/build/openerp/addons/etl/lib/, /home/panos/build/openerp/client-
kde/server-modules

See, it takes a comma and a space (did I trim that?) .. Feel free to improve.
