I'm just going by my understanding of the situation, which is mainly
from when Matt objected to an early version of the installer where those
packages were not being installed by default. This led me to believe
that they are required.

I agree with the second part of that statement (but in that case, the
real fix would seem to be more along the lines of taking them out of
REQ_PACKAGES and devising a better scheme for selecting what package
sets to include on a release.) The first part doesn't seem to have any
reasoning behind it beyond tradition, though.
