Not taking sides, but if the end user had no interest in what was excluded, then those things were never going to be looked at anyway. You know full well who the target audience is for this fork. This is nothing more than a hard-coded filter.
People that want to contribute to MAME know where to get the real thing.
I'm sure this will cause a shit storm, but you kinda paved the way for these "anti-MAME" projects. The majority of your audience is made up of people who want to play games. When MAME's mission changed from being about preserving Arcade Hardware/Software to preserve everything that can be preserved, it just became a mess (pun intended) from a user perspective. Most probably would've been fine with the addition of console systems/games but that's not what happened.
Filtering needs to be more granular inside built-in UI, the whole thing has been setup in such a way that it's just easier to torrent everything than simply get what you actually want to use, neat features like HLSL aren't worth the time to configure because you'd need to be an engineer to understand most of the controls. I could go on, but no point really.
Guess I ended up taking a side 
EDIT: I was completely wrong about the filtering. MAME is an on/off thing for me these days, so sometimes I forget things have changed. Apologies to Haze
