I see, thanks for the info.

Hmm, the problem is that the blends are maintained outside of
tasksel/d-i so including them in tasksel would lead to double
maintenance.
How would d-i decide which packages containing tasks to install before
running tasksel? AFAICT neither education-tasks nor isenkram are
mentioned by any d-i component.
I guess d-i needs to be changed to install all available tasksel data
by default?
