Should the Core Location dependency be removed?

[irace]

This library currently has a Core Location dependency as a “location” parameter seems commonly useful enough to warrant inclusion. I can understand developers not wanting to pull this in so am interested in suggestions on how to best structure this. Perhaps a XExtensionItem+Location subspec that augments the core library with these capabilities?

That’d be fine but I’m not sure anyone would really mind linking CoreLocation. It’s not like it changes your bundle size or anything.

Considering removing location support altogether for now, considering it's likely not something  would encourage, even though I think there are valid use cases that aren't just sending the user's current location from an app that has permissions to an extension that doesn’t (e.g. sharing a Foursquare check-in to an extension like Day One's).

Yeah, thinking about it a bit, that’s probably true. Like you said, you could be sharing the location of a historic site, or a checkin, and not just where you are, but probably so few people would use that, that it isn’t worth being in the 1.0 anyway.
