[Cuis-dev] Let the user decide where to save packages

When creating a new package, I usually save the package, then I move the
package file from outside Cuis to the directory I want the package to be
in, then I reimport the package using FileList tool from its new location
so that the loaded package path changes. I'm not sure if I'm doing
something wrong too. The change I want to introduce avoids all that.
