If we move everything for which it is possible to not use it, we can split our stuff up in at least a zillion packages. Let's compare it with the jre, or with tomcat or so. They are stuffed with classes I can do without, and I'm glad that I don't have to install an aditional package for every feature I could also have done without before that point. It's good that we break up mmbase in modular pieces, but we should not exaggerate, and that we should not use the mere argument that we can 'do without' a certain class, because then I fear there will be no end to it....
