[arch-general] should gawk be in group base-devel?

Hi,

It is often quoted that, for package building purposes, it is assumed a 
user has packages in group base-devel installed.

gawk is part of base but a user could deselect it within the Arch Installer.

Does it make sense to add gawk to group base-devel so that its presence 
is mandated by the previous assumption?

Should I raise a feature request for this?

Regards,
Neil Darlow
