I'm starting to use drush on many sites now and plan to automate all the site updates with it.

One thing that is missing is that certain modules require additional downloads (eg. fckeditor).

What about looking for a fckeditor.drush script in the module that will be executed after the module has been installed/updated? In this case it could then wget the right version of fck for that version of the module and untar/unzip.

One core problem is that there is no lookup service where we can enter in a module name and get a project back. Once we have a project, the rest is straightforward ... If you are not using HEAD drush along with D6 drush_extras, you are missing out on much better project handling.

I ported cvs_deploy to provision, which figures out the project IF it is a cvs checkout.

Oh, I get it - you want to download the fck project thats not drupal specific ... .drush now supports pre/post scripts. You might want to contribute such a script for fckeditor project on drupal.org. See drush_invoke().
