Why do we need TWO text editors installed by default? Why automatically assume everyone needs RAID, or encrypted filesystems? I am fine with keeping in tools for not-so-common filesystem types, though I will still remove them myself. All these are things that it can be reasonably expected many many people won't ever use. base should be restricted to things that everyone agrees should be part of an Arch system. If base doesn't try telling us what bootloader to use, why should it tell us what editor to use? -- Eli Schwartz
