Because you're thinking that your changes won't make it back into the OFBiz repository, you may be better off developing your apps in this approach:

<a href="http://ofbizwiki.go-integral.com/Wiki.jsp?page=FAQ28">http://ofbizwiki.go-integral.com/Wiki.jsp?page=FAQ28</a>

With the request->view->screen setup of the controller.xml file this makes it super easy to make changes to the OFBiz components through a second, custom component without touching the OFBiz code (which means it will always sync). 

If you have to make changes to the OFBiz code to get the functionality you require you can maintain a single smaller patch (for changes in java files and ECA definitions, mainly)

I would like to see the applications split out also. per another thread
going on for a few days on the dev list, our changes are going to
become too "ungeneralized" to go back into ofbiz hence making it
difficult for us for stay in sync with svn as per the svntips on the
Wiki. however we would like to be able to stay in sync with the framework.
