sunspot data in R 2.0.0

I noticed this in the NEWS:

     o   Datasets 'sunspot.month' and 'sunspot.year' are available
         separately but not via data(sunspot) (which is used by package
         lattice to retrieve a dataset 'sunspot').

Now, the 'sunspot' dataset included in lattice was actually a mistake, I 
realized later that I instead wanted the 'sunspots' data from base, 
which is currently used in example(xyplot). (Even more recently, I 
realized that I actually want sunspot.year.)

Would it make any difference if I removed the 'sunspot' data from 
lattice? I don't think anyone is going to miss it.
