iirc on each build an up-to-date debian-edu-tasks.desc file was 
generated and taken as base to build the list of packages to install, 
also taking into account what has been in hintpkgs-<image-name>.txt, 
ignore.txt, avoid.txt (and whatnot). I believe a great part of it was 
useful at DVD building times.

Sure the ability to include Ignore: packages is lost, but then these 
were included with the image last time for squeeze, iirc.

IMO we should just sit and wait.
