Because they'll never work in any of my testing environments:
  Javascript
  Net-Google
  Win32
  mod_perl

I specifically don't exclude Apache-*, only mod_perl.  Of course,
excluding mod_perl means that most of Apache-* will have missing
dependencies, but you're right, some of it will work.

Because the test suite is bloody irritating and breaks my console:
  CursesWidgets

and for reasons that I forget:
  Alzabo-GUI-Mason
  Egg
  MailTools
  MojoMojo
  Perl-Dist
  Wx

TBH, I don't think there's anything that you should exclude by default.
