This is certainly an interesting question. With other Emacs packages,
there is sometimes a contrib version, that adds "more", see e.g. org-
mode or telega. But those are tied closely to what upstream considers
contrib, so I don't think that applies here.
IIUC selectrum is likewise optional. Perhaps we should consider not
propagating optional inputs, but rather adding them as normal inputs –
so that byte compilation succeeds, but users won't be forced to have a
rather large elisp library as part of their profiles if it's not
needed.
I've CC'd Maxim to get their input on the matter, the patch otherwise
LGTM.
