thhe kernel also does not have a rendering engine, canvas layer, widgets etc.
the structure for userland is different to a kernel, and here i disagree. file
monitoring AND doing things on those files go together. they are in the "deal
with simple files" domain. not interpreting the contents of them, just doing
the "raw bits and pieces".

this is possible the only thing that might move from ecore-file - download, as
it primarily is dealing with a http connection and dumping data to disk as a
simple output. the others imho belong together. (and then you will complain
that ecore-file is too small so it needs to be merged with ecore as all it has
is inotify stuff).
you know with this amount of shuffling - i'd have to put off any alpha release
for maybe 3-6months. accept the consequences of wanting to do such major
shuffling (that is entirely not needed for most of it).
