Great to hear we're moving in this direction.
I guess the obvious question is "what will break?". Once we
have a clear idea what really depends on xfs (some packages,
like wine, _can_ work with xfs if it's the only available
option, or without), we can devise a plan of making xfs
optional (moved to Extra along with all apps that depend
on it?).
Regardless, I'm sure such a list would help fix some apps.
OSS community is rather good I find at this sort of focused
cleanup efforts.
