Please propose this to TeX Live mailing list:
	tex-live@tug.org
I follow upstream collections to the word, and will not start
extracting and moving single packages, as long as this is not
done upstream in TeX Live.

I know that the big -extra collections are a bit a pain, but
I don't see many different options, but packaging each unit
by itself, which was rejected years ago (would increase the
number of Debian packages by 5000 or so .... not good out of
various reasons).

Hope that helps

Norbert
