I can agree with this; however i think that:
 - i would add extra with the unmaintained packages (and not remove them); 
mirror would be free not to mirror that media as well and disabled by default
 - core would be too big (mirror size + hdlists size + search time) (a games 
split up is what i would recommend to alleviate this problem)
