I'm attaching my take on the same sort of task.
This one directly does CVS checkouts of modules found in the public drupal.org repository. Thus, the approach is quite different, but the aim is very similar. Slightly more dev-minded ... which is why I built it for myself.
One-click evaluation/install of modules.
- It scans cvs.drupal.org for all modules (in realtime)
- It can CVS checkout any listed module, as 'anonymous', optionally with a version tag
- It uses PHP file_get_contents(url) not wget
- It doesn't have anything to do with tgz
- It has similar security issues regarding write-access to the codebase :)
- It may not work right on all systems, cvs executable must be available, php remote file read must be enabled, ... but this is strictly dev-server environment, right?
It looks like it would co-exist quite nicely with this project. Would you be interested in letting me merge this with that so it's got somewhere to live?

Basically, clicking on any of the several hundred links will just get the module. No URL entry ;)
