Why? An UI can still ignore stuff with less than 10 packages if it wants to!

I'm not entirely opposed to abiword, except that it doesn't have 5
application packages.
(I'm not counting role::data and role::documentation packages, which
should be hidden by an UI anyway, so abiword would fall below the
5-packages treshold then)
Abiword is currently only one application (with some variants and plugins)

The latter would suggest that suite::kde is a group with the current
use of the single column. That is misleading; you would need to tag
them suite::kde:everything then.

Well, it's very very common jargon, actually.

I don't know. I'm just bringing up random stuff that might be useful.
I hate PHP.

I don't have one. I didn't follow the "should we add a lamp meta
package" discussion either.
