It should be ~70 mb at least, but I am afraid it is unintuitive. People
will just see that something doesn't work but hardly know how to fix it.
"icedtea" is not really to find in the package management.

Not a bad idea, however I consider seahorse useful.

I doubt that we cal really remove perl form the spin and even if we can,
it means we loose some features like attaching a file form Thunar to a
mail via the "Send to" menu.

Yes please! The question is: Which one? Throw a coin or play
rock-paper-scissors(-spock)? ;)
