Actually I had hoped that Lucas would push this but he's probably busy
with lots of other stuff (e.g. website revamp and getting a child, in no
particular order). ;-)

So IIRC the idea was to create a "desktop-core" module that only
includes very basic desktop modules, plus a moduleset of
"desktop-approved" that can also include apps that have the same
purpose? What would the latter mean for the actual release process of
the release-team?

I'd love to see this pushed as it would solve "Rhythmbox vs. Banshee"
and other potential conflicts, but I probably neither have the time nor
the knowledge to come up with an initial plan here.
