Adding recommended packages to the DVD or not? (Was: r57961 - trunk/src/build/CD-administrator)

The effect came with revision 57971. This change added a lot of
packages to our DVD, and dropped these suggested packages:
abakus amsn arping astronomical-almanac backuppc battery-stats beast
belocs-locales-bin bind9 brasero brltty brltty-x11 capiutils
cervisia cl-geodesics clamav-data clamav-docs clamav-getfiles
contact-lookup-applet cron-apt denyhosts dhcp-client diveintopython
dosemu drawmap emacs21 euler fail2ban gnome-games gocr gretl
italc-client italc-master jclic k3dsurf kalgebra kile krb5-user
ksociograma libnss-ldap libpam-mount libpulse-mainloop-glib0
ltsp-controlaula mathomatic mozilla-plugin-vlc mtr ntp-doc
ocsinventory-agent pari-gp qliss3d quiteinsane r-cran-rcmdr smbfs
totem-mozilla tuxtype-data-nonfree ultrastar-ng-xine wims winbind
workrave xoscope xsane yacas
All the packages that we install by default are still included on the
DVD.
Should we keep this change? Perhaps some of these suggested packages
should be promoted to recommends?
These packages were added:
