Just one comment: I can bring many of these topics to upstream
attention, but I will *not* change the packaging my moving many classes
around without specific and good argumentation.

For fpl/pazo Ralf provided a good argument:PSNFSS asks for it, and since
psnfss is required, we put the stuff into the -recommended packages.

For arbitrary classes which might be of interest this will not be done.

So one has to test it, but this will not be me.

Yes, I tried to make the packages as good partners as possible.
