OK, I don't know about automatic packing. But perhaps you can intercept some event with project hooks, to make an additional copy of the class. That is, supposing you have the habit of opening your classes from the project. You might also write a program, OpenClass("Class", "Library"), that would include the snapshot and - I don't know if this is possible - the check-out.
