This is something I'd strongly vote against. It will likely create yet more fights between people for control of any committee that designates which packages are "recommended".

Let the community figure out which packages are best.

Let's instead encourage collaboration and agreement at package level, so we work together towards having better packages, as opposed to many not-so-good ones.

How about naming all official / recommended / _the_ packages with a
prefix / suffix (e.g. base-*) and requiring an approval to create such
packages?

This way, the required name would always be available when needed.
