Java SE starting a features diet

Apparently Java SE will take on a slimming program. With new guidelines from JSR 270, Java SE 6 will start shedding some weight. First on it's way to the dumpster: javax.sound.midi, according to SD Times. Here's the link: http://www.sdtimes.com/article/story-20060915-04.html

I hope they move that into add-ons library. Sure the feature appetite need some control, but why not keep things which are already available as add-ons for those who may need it to maintain backwards compatibility?
