So what I like to do is to use "System Suitcases", which are basically empty system files created with ResEdit [or whatever]: I just create a new file with type=zsys, creator=MACS. Now I have a file openable by the finder in which I can put fonts, sounds and keyboard layouts to my heart's content..
