Comment 2 for bug 218505

This figure fluctuates a lot due to dependencies flapping around, and as such it's only practical to fill it up immediately before release (otherwise we spend lots of time trying to get the DVD to fit), when there are typically lots of more important things to do. I wouldn't hold your breath too much for this bug.

In consolation, software tends to grow over time, so I have no doubt that this bug will be fixed without us having to do much at all. :-)
