Yeah, I feel like these extra components are being used as a dumping
ground, a place to put things so you dont' have to think about them.
We already have such a dumping ground, you don't need a new one, it's
called either "the next milestone" or if you really want to forget
about it, "Future". I'd like to see the new components go away.
