It could be that, instead of asking if to proceed, to write down 
packages to exclude.

The same thing.

99% of improvements I saw found some kind of hate against them, and the 
strong ones came from people that were not getting so much done.


Ralf Mardorf:

The present behaviour leads to various desktop environments running 
simultaneously in the background, when no application really needs them.

This was suggested by a different user, and I just validated that it is 
very true.
