My understanding of the "big idea" of pkg base is to fine
grain feature install/removal, and I would consider support
for things like nfs, ufs, zfs to be along those lines
of fine grain.

I thought the runtime package was the bits you MUST have to
build a running system, and nothing more. Perhaps I have
misunderstood.

I would of called that the "systemrepair" package.
