I don't want to enter too much into details, but, to avoid breaking
existing configurations that only include core.schema, nothing would
prevent from defining the files
really_core.schema
not_so_core.schema
and have a core.schema file consisting in
include really_core.schema
include not_so_core.schema
The all you'd need to do would be to only load the relevant portion of
the split.
However, I believe this is a moot point, since I expect most of the
users to move to using back-config, which means that core.schema will no
longer need to be around except for configuration initialization.
Note that we also have a converted core.schema in core.ldif, and the same
split could be applied there if desired.
