I think this is the crux of the issue -- when I examine what's along for the
ride in our current, development ServiceMix footprint there are at least a
few bundles which have snuck in over time that don't appear to be used by
anyone (nice-to-haves) and, even though I can establish this by trial and
error, I'd like to be able to systematically purge any that are unnecessary
for our intentional capabilities.

I think this is a fine idea, actually, and would help our cause at least a
little.
