possible :-)
as of bash, for example, there are very small app to replace
unix commands (busybox) that could be used on very minimal
system

I am a firm believer in that rpm packages should depend on the
functions they need. No rpm package should take for granted that
something is installed in the "base" pattern. I also hate it when
single rpm packages depends on patterns (not sure if this exist in
openSUSE) they should depend on rpm packages.
And also thinks that a pattern should not depend on rpm packages that
other rpm packages included in the pattern also depends on, as there
is no need for that. This is not a problem technical speaking it's
just harder to maintain and confusing to people.
I hope we can agree on this things so we know how to move on.
Warm Regards,
