More generally, I'm concerned that folks think this'll help a lot more
than it actually will.  There's a tendency to think in terms of packages
- they're contained units and therefore convenient to reason about.  But
just being in a container is not an indication of complexity or size.
The obligatory example of this that is (I hope) generally understood is
the kernel.  One source package, wildly different complexity than
anything else - to the point where it's more meaningful to talk about
the workflows enabled, subsystems, etc. than the rpms themselves.  I've
mentioned this upthread as well, but this is the nature of the problem:
it's not about *packages*, it's about *use case*.

Be well,
