Actually, Marcus (which I believe is included in the "we" above) said 
-in response to my request of removing the FFI- the precise opposite:

   But honestly don't regard this is a "basic" image... it has lots and
   lots of stuff in it that is not needed, FFI is just one of these.
   We will not do a "full" image this time (people can just install the
   packages they want, and a 'full' image would have needed
   to be done and tested months ago).

   So just consider it to be the new "full" image...
