is there a general definition for what exactly qualifies an application to
deserve the title "important"?
According to your statement, a definition might be found behind the word
"default desktop installation".

So i guess everything that goes beyond having a working Desktop Environment
is also not "important", correct?

This type of definition work helps a lot with deciding what packages will
eventually be removed, replaced or added to make the "default desktop
installation" more redundancy-free.
