No; bring brings in xkeyboard-config, which is over 5mb, putting it in
the top 20 biggest packages. 5mb-on-disk isn't _huge_ but overall we
grew 220mb on disk over two releases, and a whole bunch of "eh, who
cares?" adds up. If it *got* us anything in terms of functionality,
okay, I can sell that to people, but for the base, this is just bloat.
