It is not an question of size here, it is a question of being able to
select the languages for which input maps get installed for m17n-db.
Eventually we thinking now to have a scheme to allow the selection what
input methods get enabled when an input method gets installed under
SCIM, but until that is available I believe the current packaging is
the best that can be done.

Right various languages should probably be added to comps: this will
certainly happen for Indian scripts at least which I'm currently
working on.

On the other hand of course not every language needs to be comps either:
I don't think most Swedes say need to have m17n-db-swedish installed
for example.
