Yes, I feel the same way. The programs I have installed on my machine I

toolkit or set of libraries they use in the packge name.

For me, having GNUstep in the description, or even just indicated by the
dependencies is enough; again, though, I can see not everybody feels
this way, so I'll withdraw my criticism.
