Maybe we need an exclude list also.  I know an underlaying issue is
keeping dependencies together since we don't handle dependencies across
CD's.  GNOME and KDE are two very popular desktops and thus their basic
bits certainly need to be on disc1.  But due to the dependency issue,
"lesser" related ports make the disc1 cut-off -- things like the 7.2MB
(*compressed*) GNOME user documentation (which can easily be found on a
website).
