No matter what, disc#1 has a finite amount of space and it's going to be impossible to come up with a combination of packages that keeps everyone happy. Sooner or later, "popular" comes down to somebody's judgement. To see what's currently in the package split, look at src/release/scripts/print-cdrom-packages.sh (for whatever branch interests you). Note that in addition to the packages listed there, we also need to put all of their dependencies on disc#1 as well. These dependencies likely account for a lot of the "small packages and ones that are not popular seem to make in on the first CD". (FYI, the 5.0-RC3 package set occupies 339MB of a 560MB ISO image.)
