I made and tested a similar patch for use in an experimental live image
build, except updating task-desktop to also include the new cinnamon task:

Recommends: task-xfce-desktop | task-gnome-desktop | task-kde-desktop |
task-lxde-desktop | task-cinnamon-desktop, xdg-utils, avahi-daemon,
libnss-mdns, anacron, libgl1-mesa-dri, eject, iw, alsa-utils, alsa-base,
pm-utils

Otherwise, task-desktop cannot be used with recommends turned on (it
ends up installing the first alternative, the xfce task). Our live
desktop images all need task-desktop to install all the desktop
dependencies that aren't specific to any desktop.

Thanks,
Ben
