+1

one main goal of improvements should be make them optional and give
power-users who are happy with yum and a stripped down system the
ability holding their base as small as possible

one may say "this days hard disk are large"

but i say if you are running >20 virtual machines on a professional
envirnoment with failover and san-storgae you have a total other
point of view to wasting 500 MB x 20 = 10 GB which means a whole
server VM on the same storage and sas-disks are not so cheap

additionally you need this space as minimum again for backups
normally more than once

* local backups
* automated offsite-backups via rsync
* mirrors of the local backups on a extenal disk
* the external disk a second time for having one outside and switch each month
