actually it's a bad idea to package webapps :( but this is only my opinion.

Bad idea???Phpmyadmin is the most used solution for managing databases on internet domains( see many hosting sites).I think it's a wonderful idea to package webapps and it's a must for an user friendly distro!

Yes, bad idea, because webapps have a faster release cycle (or actually no release cycle), and that's really bad for a distribution with setteled release cycles.

As we are talking here about phpmyadmin, it's better for the server admin to roll out this application by himself, just because of security reasons.

Please, don't argue with "user friendly distro". Phpmyadmin is a webapplication, it belongs into the server class, but it's really not worth it to update every 3 to 6 weeks by the server team or motu group.
