I would say it scares me to bits. It sounds like one more try to create
the egg laying wool milk pig.
To say it maybe a bit too drastic, why not start with the core and work
our way out to the overlays ? I still vote for a core core thing and not
for a I can do it all thing. And yes I got convicned that packaging is a
necessarily vil part of it ;) But neither GNOME nor KDE are.
