I like the idea of having pluggability here. Then the only constraint on whether the toolkits get delivered as part of the SDK is whether or not one or more of the SDK Parts is built with them. That is, if they are being *used* by the SDK, then they need to be part of the main download, otherwise they can be delivered separately and users can pick up which ever one they want to use.
