Hi Carlos,

We didn't tackle this question during the code sprint but I can share
some personal thoughts.
We implemented bundles like that on the while ago on the old Magento
connector for a customer and it is indeed a very good solution
(simple, all information displayed, allow to calculate the margin on
the  bundle, ...)

and it depends of the needs of the customers (some will need bill of
materials / manufacturing for instance).
Still, I think we could decide to implement this way to import the
bundles as the default one in the core module and care to keep things
decoupled enough to allow different implementations in  extensions?
