It sounds like what you're talking about his how to handle
distro-specific packaging decisions. It's important to note that the 
FSDG doesn't seem to prevent distro maintainers from adopting an even
broader interpretation of "steering users to nonfree software" than
what the FSDG might require, nor does it seem to require distro 
maintainers to include any software that they don't wish to, for
whatever reason they don't wish to, even if it would be permissible
under the FSDG, so they'll still be able to exclude such software
regardless.
