I don't like this part: just keep the exiting packages as is (which makes
it possible to remove stuff you really don't need/want, e.g. on
appliance-type machines where the installation footprint is important, as
well as on minimized special-purpose machines like a KDC), but turn
clusters and metaclusters into first-class citizens throughout the
packaging system, not only visible during installation. I've filed RFEs
about this in the S10 PlatBeta timeframe.
