I know it's usable, but that's not what I meant. I'm against including
it because I think most of the people using Haiku won't use it at all,
and if they would want to, it's just a download away.
I don't want to have a distribution that's flooded with software just
because it's good software.
But that's just my opinion anyway - Apple surely gives a light version
of iLife away with each Mac. But I would prefer to have only essential
apps in the distribution, apps almost anyone would (have to) download
anyway.

While this is haiku-development, I think all core Haiku members should
have a say in something like that.

Yes, via the CDDA file system.
