Unless we seed @selected with the extra stuff, it will get removed the first time the user runs --depclean, which probably isn't what we want. I'm fine with going the multi-profile route, but it seems to me that we still need some kind of initial @selected set. Basically the goal here is to give the user a bunch of useful stuff by default (specified in some way in the profile), but make it easy for the user to remove it if they wish. A side goal is to do this without adding 14 more profiles, because we don't have mixins. -- Rich
