I think adding packages to core Emacs is usually a bad idea unless it's
a package contributing to the general infrastracture of ELisp (or if
it's a package that's important for some ELisp package that's already in
core).

I think the plan/intention is rather to move things out of core.
To make up for it, the intention is then to provide a new mechanism to
"bundle" some GNU ELPA packages into the "default" build of Emacs.
