Nothing that it couldn't handle, but AFAIK, we don't currently have the infrastructure in place to deal with splitting, merging, obsoleting packages, moving files from one package to another, etc. I know it can all be done with dependencies (do 'optional minimum' deps work yet?) but adding those deps is a manual process and not trivial.
