Amen to that! However, I expect that if it was easy to do then it would have been done already. I'm assuming that the AUR database is hosted in a completely different database to the standard AL package repository DB, and may even conform to a different DB schema.

It's my opinion that anything that brings AUR closer to the core, all the better.

Indeed, arooaroo is right, the DB formats differ a bit.

That said, if anything, it is planned to do the reverse of what matsche suggested, that is, to add the package lists from current, extra, unstable, and so on, to the AUR's database. (check out bug http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/2329 , notice we've had it open for a long time, none of us have had the chance yet)
