One approach to this could be to e-mail Debian Weekly News with a list of
packages you intend on removing and giving it a few weeks to see if anybody
objects to any particular package, to give you an idea of the trends. Once user
feedback has been sorted out, it will be a LOT easier to see which packages can
be safely removed without resulting in any riot.
Meanwhile, Nautilus1 and similar packages can already be removed, likewise for
Nautilus2 plugins that won't be needed starting with 2.6 e.g. sftp plug-in.
