'Twas brillig, and Olav Vitters at 13/02/12 11:28 did gyre and gimble:
+> I know drakconf is a suggests, etc, just thought it would be a suggests
+> elsewhere (another task-*, maybe *x11* something, etc). E.g.
+> 
+>   task-kde4-minimal -> task-graphical
+>   task-gnome-minimal -> task-graphical
+> 
+>   task-graphical -> drakconf, etc
+
+Just FWIW, I also like this idea (tho' fully understand if it's decided
+not to have YATP (Yet Another Task Package))
+
+I also like the name "graphical" as it is future proofing against
+X11->Wayland transition and also uses the same naming as systemd targets
+(so if there is a non-graphical equiv of this then task-multi-user would
+be my preferred naming :D)
+
+> Then you'd only have to add something like drakconf in one place. The
+> task-graphical is a ugly though. It wouldn't make sense to install
+> "task-graphical" (you'd only get drakconf and some other stuff).
+
+I don't personally think it's that ugly. You may only want e.g. a MythTV
+or XBMC etc. media frontend in which case a full blown DE is simply not
+needed, but a graphical display certainly is.
