My ten cents: things are downloadable separately. Perhaps in groups as well.

The site could be smart enough to provide you links to dependencies of
something you download, too, and possibly (if we hook it up to the POV-Ray
user registration system) keep track of what you download and only offer the
downloads of dependencies you don't already have.

If this collection gets to be quite useful we need to consider the
possibility that at some point, integration with some POV platform user
interfaces could happen; for that, it definitely needs to support retrieval
of individual files.
