Greetings all,
Just thinking a little about the bundle-inclusion-principle. There's some pretty strong evidence that Allan is a fan of Quicksilver, and it brought to mind the idea that the TMer could download only those bundles (s)he would use. In my case, pretty much exclusively LaTeX.
I would guess that, unlike Quicksilver plugins (?), the extra bundles don't have an effect on performance per se, but there is a certain pleasure in being parsimonious. ;)

Along those same lines, I've been thinking about bundle distribution. One thing I think that both Quicksilver and TextMate could look at is using RSS with enclosures for distributing plugins or bundles. There is a really nice RSS feed for Konfabulator when a new widget comes out it appears in the RSS feed and all you have to do is click to get the widget downloaded!
