I'm in favor of adding all of this (covariance, coefficient, linear regression).  It's still at the level of elementary statistics, and even taught in watered down "business statistics" classes.  It's about the minimum that can be done beyond single-variable stats.

But I also think this defines the limit of what the core "should" include in this area.
