Actually, SUNWswmt should have been removed, my oversight; I'm skeptical
patching of unbundled products is going to work, and until we've sorted
that out any patch functionality should be at best a repository package,
I think.

Will add, I've just started with snv_73 on Friday so hadn't noticed them
yet.

No, that should be taken off.

I think we should have at least one of SUNWcdrw, SUNWmkcd, SUNWdvdrw
included in the image, more for the USB memory case than the CD one;
right now we have the first two and not the last (it's only 118K
bzip2'ed so not much of an issue space-wise). Which one does Gnome's
burner interface use? That would be the one I'd probably include and
leave the others off.
