vlc/vlc-nox distinction

Hi,

I'm currently fighting with upgrading to VLC 2.2, and noticed that a
lot of plugins were shuffled around. I noticed that I'm spending way
to much time figuring out what plugin should go to vlc and what plugin
should go to vlc-nox. I wonder if having this split is really worth
the effort. How would you feel with just dropping vlc-nox and just be
done with it?

I believe that upstream doesn't care that much about this, because
otherwise I'd expect the Makefiles to be a bit more helpful with
determining this. J-B, I'd like you to confirm if I'm right here.

Thanks,
