I agree. I am new user to cygwin32 and would like to be able to download 
and install/build individual packages instead of the entire sdk at once.

I dual-boot debian-linux and just recently nt. I would love to have the 
same type of package/installation process as debian for nt.  I wonder if 
it would be possible to re-use the gnu debian infrastructure/tools but 
have a "port" geared towards cygwin32.
