Maybe I'm splitting hairs but when I think of a "standard" or "default"
package I think of things like coreutils that are installed
automatically when I installed my operating system.
Think about it this way: since xmonad is in the "main repository
distribution" for many operating systems, would you call it a "standard"
package?
Just because I can install a package doesn't mean it's a "standard"
package. I'm sure my operating system has dozens of password managers
to choose from, just like it has dozens of windows managers. I would
only call one of them the "standard" package if it was automatically
installed by the base system.
