Well, yeah there is the other problem of dependencies and getting a smaller minimal 
install. For example, libnotify.

# ldd /usr/bin/notify-send | wc -l
44
# ldd /usr/lib64/libnotify.so.1.2.3 | wc -l
12

or how about libmsn
# ldd /usr/bin/msntest | wc -l
20
# ldd /usr/lib64/libmsn.so.0.3.0 | wc -l
9

I didn't test all of them, but the extra dependencies are unneeded.
