Those of us with strong Unix backgounds really don't want to see anything named "core" - so I'd say let's look for some other name. What you're pushing for Bruno - is much needed and could be a great enhancement to the usage of OFBiz. Anything that'll make it easier for people to build - non-eCommerce related applications without having to disable anything is a huge win in my book.
