That's rather dangerous, don't you think ? If PostgreSQL
proper (eg the core server) wants to keep its good name it
better make sure it is bundled with "good" "add-ons". And that
would require precisely the additional workload that several
core people have explained they must avoid in order to be able
to focus on the core engine to keep its good reputation. So,
unless people outside the core team take up the task it won't
happen. And if they do - what's the difference to the current
state of affairs ?
