Thank you for filing this at “wishlist” severity. What do you think this amount of storage is worth a new package? Bear in mind that new packages also require an additional overhead of storage. Currently I'm inclined to leave these files in the packages, until there is at least an order of magnitude greater duplication. -- \ “It's up to the masses to distribute [music] however they want | `\ … The laws don't matter at that point.
