right. The defaults should be set for non-packagers. There are just a
handful of people in the world who will be building packages. There
are _lots_ more people who build it for themselves. It is much easier
to teach the people doing packaging than it is to teach everyone else,
and I also think it is more reasonable to ask packagers to read the
documentation than to expect everyone else to do so.

So I don't want to change the bundling defaults. They were chosen to
suit end users.

Have you read this?

if you think it is not sufficient, perhaps we could give you wiki
write access and you could help make it better?

Cheers, Tridge
