Doesn't apt-get suggest to "auto-remove" packages from time to time?  
Obviously, the packaging mechanism keeps track of which packages were  
installed by user command and which ones solely as a dependency.

To add my own $ o.o2, I'd very much like to see a tool or Synaptic  
feature which tells me about the differences between a standard  
install and the current set of installed packages. One can purge  
package by package until {Synaptic, apt-get,...} wants to remove the  
ubuntu-desktop meta-package, but this is tedious, very tedious.  
Perhaps this exists already, but I didn't notice yet.
