That'd be me :-)

I'd rather run csh than tcsh or bash.  I know both exist, but I'm more than
happy with csh and I personally don't want the extra features or bloat in
my shell of choice.

One time I had a network provider actually make my shell a tcsh instead of
csh.  I can tell the difference.  Dambit, if I ask for csh I MEAN csh,
not tcsh :-)

I think things should currently stay as they are; if you want something,
you are responsible to add it.  perl is a borderline for me, but I really
don't mind grabbing it and making it myself.  I feel the core team has 
better things to do with their time than to deal with the coordination of
these extra 'goodies'.  However, the idea that non-core people come
forward and create these add ons as post install thing is neat...
