Not sure if serious, but I'll reply anyway...

First, you seem to need absolutely nothing except libraries from base
and xenocara, so I have a hard time understanding why you can't just
build and install your own stripped-down emacs in your home directory.

Regarding the current emacs port, the gtk2/gtk3 flavors are what other
systems provide, ie a full-featured emacs package, and the no_x11
flavor provides a reasonable compromise for those who don't need/want
a gui.

I think your proposal is over the top and I would disagree with its
import.  SHould it happen, I will certainly not spend time maintaining
it, so you can remove my name from MAINTAINER.
