I'm a joe user, and I would like to see it removed from Core, but I also 
have no problem in having it in Extras. However, as it stands now, 
"extras" is a synonym for "/dev/null". I'll only believe it when I see 
it. There should be an official "extras" before people start moving core 
packages onto it.
