That's very, very near of my own vision for a "perfect" Linux OS. We have the big advantage that everything yet still not done. And we count with tools (delta-rpms, metapackages) to build a core system with "add-ons" (like server packages, desktop packages...) improving modularity and system organization. At the same time, i'm aware that it can be a too big break from the mageia's origins (in the meaning of system's scheme and organization). So, if we can progressively drive mageia to this new scheme sounds reasonable too. Cheers.
