I also think "core" is not the best one as we are using "airflow core" as a
different meaning already (that's another example of Ash's "one thing
to mean in Airflow") . I still think "common.operators" would be a good
name, but I am not insisting on "common", still I think  "providers.time"
is too granular (that would be a good name - but for reasons explained
above, I think it's better to have "one" such provider with all the basic
operators).

Speaking of which, how would "*apache-airflow-providers-basic-operators*"
sound ? I think "Base" is also used in airflow for different things -
extendability rather than reusability.

And yes - the extra provider will be pre-installed - so no need to install
anything extra from the user's point of view.. Main benefit of having it in
a separate provider will be that it will be separately upgradeable - no
need to upgrade airflow to get new features of PythonOperator for example.
