Debian Edu has customized desktops. So if education-desktop-* is on the 
list, all stuff for all desktops should be on the image, i.e. edu 
doesn't need task-*-desktop files.

IMO all education-desktop-* files can be added back; the Stretch USB ISO 
with all edu desktops included has ~ 5.5 GiB. Only thing added for 
Buster is education-desktop-lxqt, wich doesn't add much.
