Agreed. This packaging will be of a sort that _does_ represent a level

absent other suggestions I will return to my preferred passtime of
thesaurus hunting:

   - Common
   - Platform
   - Staple
   - Stock
   - Supported
   - Base
   - Basis
   - Usual
   - Normal
   - Favored
   - Selected

   - Prime

Are these synonyms for "standard"?

Some. Others are synonyms of "supported", or 2-degrees-off "standard", synonyms of things that are synonyms for "standard". Thesauruses are the original transitive-hyperlink-surfing vortex. Hooray!

Since `core` is being renamed to `std` (correct?), we'd want the new
name of `std` to convey "supported, but not as essential as what's in
`std`", right?

Yes.
