Well, there is a difference. In the "TeX fonts for X" case, the
problem which the request was intended to fix is already fixed, while we
still want to split off a teTeX-xfonts package. The various problems
that gave rise to the wish to split teTeX are not solved, are they?
(and some never will - one bug reporter complained that when tracking
unstable he had to download a huge amount of data every time tetex-base
is uploaded. This will not stop if the package is split, unless he
uninstalls most of it).
