(Note that this is a subpackage, FWIW.)

I disagree. Whether or not a package removed from Core should be
in Extras depends on many things, including: how useful it was to
begin with, whether or not there's any interest from the community
and maintaining it, what the burden of maintaining it in Fedora
is, etc.

There's no reason to demand that something like xloadimage or comsat
be in Extras if no one cares about it, and whether or not will
happen I don't feel is a determining factor on the package's status
for remaining in Core.
