Yes, I am not motivated enough to make one ;). Doing one has many hidden 
pitfalls and issues. Making one that is sufficient for *my* needs wouldn't be a 
major problem, I think, but making it in such a way that it can act as a 
stand-in for the regular texlive package in all situations, is quite... 
"non-trivial", to put it nicely ;).
