I'd prefer they be part of neither. For instance, I might prefer Lyx to LibreOffice and xxxterm to Iceweasel, and not want the bloatation of LibreOffice and/or Iceweasel. Of course, you're talking to a guy who doesn't think that lightdm and xdm and their KDE and Gnome counterparts should be part of an X install. I like things pretty granular.
