Yes, that is the idea. We will probably have to specify in some way
which binaries have to go into which binary packages, but that can be
done with a simple list.

Right, that is the idea.
That way we would also get rid of the format problem stuff. Because
formats would be created in the normal packages, and the binaries are
already present in any case.
The idea behind the splitting would be that everything of the form
package.ARCH
will become a dependency on a texlive-bin-* package.
