IMO we should be aiming to have either two or three releases: bare,
small or complete.

I would prefer not to have the complete release, because I would like us
to have _a lot_ more blocks, as blocks _do_ make sense, they just don't
make sense as the core. So if we start making "complete" releases, that
complete release could start to grow into something unmanagable.

So, we identify 'core' blocks, if we haven't already. Those get included
in the 'small' build, the rest can be downloaded either via Maven or as
separate zips.

My take on core blocks is:
 * template
 * forms
 * javaflow

I would also ask whether we should consider replacing the serializers in
core with those in the serializer block.
