Users who write their own modules instead of looking for already created
are stupid. And those who ask here instead of using search engines are
double stupid. But this stupidity is not a reason to include a module in
the library.

I dont think so. Many people need image processing, audiofile
processing, they need this and they need that. Should all modules for this
and that be included into the libraray? I don't think so. The library
should contains basic modules and distutils.
