That would be nice.  In the meanwhile, a workaround:

	cd /media/stick
	for x in *.xo; do sugar-install-bundle $x; done

Unfortunate that it has to be done this way, so here's a patch to fix
it so that the for loop is moved from shell to python.

Subject: [PATCH] sugar-install-bundle to accept multiple files
