Hi.
I'm not sure, if it should come with server image, but it likely should be 
present with Mate image. 

If we consider that it's not needed on server, we have to add it to 
https://github.com/OpenIndiana/oi-userland/blob/oi/hipster/components/meta-packages/install-types/includes/desktop_common
 
else it should go to
https://github.com/OpenIndiana/oi-userland/blob/oi/hipster/components/meta-packages/install-types/includes/server_desktop
 
I'm sure it shouldn't be present in "minimal" or "core".
