Exactly this.

Installing MATE from the spin is not exactly the same thing as
installing it from the netinstall or the DVD.

The spin does not include the same packages as the DVD and the
netinstall due to size constraints.

If we can keep the netinstall, which allows people to do exactly this,
then I really could careless what happens with workstation (and I'm
also a happy camper, as I imagine you and many others would be too).
