It would not be possible to ship the compiler and rtl as is today  and 
let the user/programmer decide if his project will use packages?

Or necessarily, if the change is done, the only option will be use 
packages instead of unit files in all projects,  including fpc?

If there will be a option i'm in favor of shipping fpc as is today and 
let the programmer decide if will use or not.

If there's no option i'm against the change.
