The original idea of Full is what I described. People just keep on
misinterpreting it. The reason for something being there like Full is
that a borderline for differentiating packages integrated to a whole
from other packages is useful.
Look at KDE or Debian, they adopted a similar model, despite the fact
that they had to "invent" this coming from the absolute opposite, from
isolated programs.
And yes, I am a volunteer for testing Full, just because I am using
Full, instead of using part of it, which obviously would make finding
problems in the "full" part of Full impossible.
