We may ask ourselves if there is really a large difference between a
"standard distribution" and a "standard library".  The primary
difference seems to be that the distribution is modular, while the
stdlib is not.

As for reviews and CI, though, we would probably want a standard
distribution to be high-quality, so to go through a review process and
be tested by the same buildbot fleet as the stdlib.
