The entire package is 270 kB. I guess we want to keep some of them
(Clearlooks, Inverted for a11y), so we would talk about some 150 kB.

We do, Debian is currently at the hardy version. That's actually the
least of my concerns, too (building a new binary package is still
relatively cheap), I'm more worried about the bad press we'd get from
upstream and whoever else.
