I don't think ruby-task-list was rejected because the new binary was small. In 
the reject mail it was already acknowledged.

"While the (compiled) javascript part is quite large (8k), this split is only 
done to save one dependency (either ruby or nodejs) from being installed. We've 
talked about this."

ruby-task-list depends on not just ruby,

ruby | ruby-interpreter, ruby-rack, ruby-activesupport, ruby-html-pipeline

So if I remove these dependencies from ruby-task-list, then every package 
depending on ruby-task-list will have to add these dependencies themselves.

I don't think its reasonable to expect every package depending on 
ruby-task-list to already depend on these packages too.

My contention is that ruby-task-list case is not same as node-autoprefixer  and 
it should be allowed to create two separate binary packages targeting ruby and 
nodejs environments.
