It would be nice to list what simplifications can be done on
`texlive-bin', so we can apply them on a new "texlive-team" branch.

On a different topic, it is now possible to install both `texlive' and
`texlive-biber' in a manifest, so re-instating the old `biber' package
may introduce code duplication without much benefit. WDYT?
