How to Create a Single Update Site for Multiple Pure-Python Extensions?

Hi KNIMErs!

When I currently bundle my pure-Python extension for KAP 5.1 and add them as a local update site, this is what I see in in the Install KNIME Extensions... dialog:

KNIME & Extensions
|_ ...
KNIME Big Data Extensions
|_ ...
...
[My extension]
|_ [My extension]
...
More extensions

As you can see in the excerpt of the extension tree above, my extension automatically appears in a separate section (Great!) and has the same name as the section that it is grouped under (Not so great!). Their shared name seems to be taken from the line description of the knime.yml file.

Now, what I am after is rather something like the following to better accommodate future extensions of my own:

KNIME & Extensions
|_ ...
KNIME Big Data Extensions
|_ ...
...
[My organization]
|_ [My extension 1]
|_ [My extension 2]
...
More extensions

Here go my two questions:

1. How can I bundle multiple pure-Python extensions into a single update site?
2. How can I define where they appear in the extension tree?

Cheers!
