Wouldn't this mean there are all the same dependencies for default
install? What about backwards compatibility, can Django include
something by default which has its own versioning policy? How does
this even work with regards to tarball downloads, which is probably
still the most common way to install Django in the new users category.
That happens to be the category who are most hit by removal of Django
from contrib.

If this would be done, it would mean a radical sift in the way Django
is distributed. Tutorial step 3 should be changed from talking about
the admin to talking about how to use PIP, virtualenv and where to
find nice packages. Using django-admin2 as an example. Maybe this
could work and would actually benefit Django development. But this is
a radical change from "download this tarball and off you go, batteries
included, backwards compatibility for 2 releases guaranteed"
philosophy.
