AFAIR theres only core & ftp isos nowadays. As long as selecting packages from
core is available as an option on both, i dont see a problem in keeping the base
group to an absolute minimum set of packages.
Maybe then not being able to select/deselect packages from base would make
more sense, even though its a very handy option prefered by most people.

As far as dialog, besides being used as a UI on the installer i dont
know why its
part of base.
