I think it is reasonable to allow someone to hide exports from the system bundle, but that doesn't mean that this process couldn't be improved. For example, we could introduce a new variable ${framework-exports} as an alias to what the framework exports, so then in our default properties file the system.packages could be written something like this:

org.osgi.framework.system.packages= ${dollar}{framework-exports} \
 ${dollar}{jre-${dollar}{java.specification.version}}

Thus making it easier for people who want to override system.packages by using our alias.

Of course, though, if you just want to add stuff to system packages, then you should be using system.packages.extra like others have suggested.
