This makes the whole core thing the "minimum apps that should be
needed to run a desktop", and that is a desktop like Windows 95 (:-P)
but without notepad, without cmd, without any actual real app that has
a window border, those are not core apps. Why not move core apps to
goodies, forget about goodies and rename it to the "git" repository,
like actually Benny once suggested, the two separate repos are not
essential and it is fine to have a single one just like GNOME has.
