Etoys wouldn't be the first thing I would want to take out of a
core image. That would be (in order):
- MVC
- Browsers
- sources and changes file support
- Etoys
- Compiler

A good core image would be Morphic and a package loader. Usable
and customizable. I wouldn't want to distribute anything more or
less to a non-technical user.
