Maybe then we should, just for the user guide, rename those Optional Packages that will stay with a base Haiku installation for the forseeable time "Bundled Applications". One day, when the native browser, a beshare-ish support system and a simple PDF viewer are part of the system, we can kick out those bundled apps and point to the package manager for more software.
