Just so you guys know, this change allows people with mako, jinja, or chameleon.genshi default_templates to use "tg components" like tgext.admin and Catwalk. Without this, those libraries have to use XML () all over the place in their templates which also degrades performance. The default template already loads TW by default, so I am uncertain why having TW as a dep. would be a concern.
