FWIW, I'd prefer to see the clients in separate (binary) packages from
the server, which may be running on some other host.

Also, in general, do the programs in each new package all have similar
dependencies now?  IIRC, one motivation for refactoring was complaints
about xbase-clients depending on a lot of libraries that only a
handful of the programs it contains actually needs, so it would be
unfortunate if such "dependency pollution" were still present.
