If it makes things easier for now, and if you think could be tuned
later (wrt smaller base and more subpackages), go ahead with it for
now.

Our teTeX_texmf is about 110 MB (installed, i.e. uncompressed). If
the abovementioned 150 MB also refer to the installed size, it's
not too bad.

For the config file stuff, I really have to look at this myself,
but I still don't have enough time for it now.
