It tends to happen in development builds, and then it's whittled down again before the next release. For example, in the 2008.11 release, Gimp was removed from the default installation in order to get back down to fighting weight. As I understand it, much of the new bulk is due to new device drivers (which is a good thing). So for now you have to use a DVD.
