Uh... I spend a lot of time in #ubuntu. I didn't meet no one that said
main is enough. Instead, I heard a lot of people saying "doesn't ubuntu
have X package?" and soon after that "how do I enable universe?".

This sounds very bad. It makes you think universe is something like
backports. It would have bad influence on people, and just name change
of the same think will result in loosing some users. Even "contrib" in
Debian doesn't sounds so bad as unofficial or testing would.

I think it should stay universe.
