A process wasting CPU cycles and RAM is not something that I find to be useful 
in the least, especially not on a system running from two flash drives in 
RAID1 on one of Dell's 11th generation servers. I'm sure some people, perhaps 
those who don't know how to manage a system themselves, would find this 
useful. For them, perhaps it'd be nice to have an option to pull in that 
bloat. It is not useful to me, and I'm sure others feel the same way.

That people worked on it does not make it useful. I'm sorry if people disagree 
with this, but it is the reality of the situation.

Regardless, disabling it did help, but I'd like to remove all of the bloat if 
possible. Is it tied in to a common package in the Server spin, like some 
things in GNOME are, or will removing the `cockpit` package not attempt to 
take half of the system with it?
