This is exactly what I feared when the modules were first proposed: 
essential packages moving to modules only.

I think this is absolutely a step in the wrong direction. Things like "ant" 
are essential parts of a distribution. They cannot sit in some module with 
arbitrary branches that can be EOLed at any time.
