meta packages for ubuntu-desktop

[dawynn]

Yes!!!!  YES!!!!  YES!!!!!!

I could not understand why ubuntu-desktop would install four dozen
python libraries / packages that I did not need to run my desktop.  If
the various packages in ubuntu-desktop were broken down into 3 or 4
meta-packages, I could choose which of the sub-packages I wanted, or
didn't want. 

Also, if ubuntu does ever bring KDE into main, this would help make the
move easier.  There could be ubuntu-gnome-desktop and ubuntu-kde-desktop
sub-meta-packages.  ubuntu-dektop itself could depend on having either
the gnome or kde desktop, but would not need to have both installed. 
(BTW, an obvious extension would be to also allow for
ubuntu-icewm-desktop, etc.)

Thanks for making the suggestion!
