i totally agree. in fact if we are going to merge... we should do a lot more
merging. we need to decide on a future much smaller set of libraries

e.g. (lib* assumed)

efl:
  eina, eo, ecore, efl, eio

eflgui:
  evas, edje, emotion, elementary, ector, ecore_audio, ecore_imf,
  ecore_imf_evas, ecore_input

eflnet:
  ecore_con, ecore_ipc, eldbus, ecore_avahi

eflsys:
  ecore_file, efreet, efreet_mime, efreet_trash, elocation

others left over to figure out...
  ephysics, eet, elua, embryo, eolian, ethumb, ethumb_client

and definitely unportable or dubiously universal lib api's:
  eeze, ecore_drm, ecore_drm2, ecore_buffer, ecore_cocoa, ecore_fb,
  ecore_psl1ght, ecore_sdl, ecore_wayland, ecore_wl2, ecore_win32,
  ecore_x, elput, escape, evil

let's have a decent plan anyway first so we have a good idea where we are going.

i think eina should merge in too to "libefl" and likely even eio and possibly
even a chunk of ecore_file utility should be there either in eio or in eina -
core file system interfaces.
