                                                          ^^^^^^^
We have already 4 task-gnome-*
this number will go up with the progress of gnome
after year or two there will be a dozen of editors,
half dozen of irc programs, many dozens games etc.
task packages arent well-suited to such situation
one most often want 1 or only a few editors etc.
and one need to be sure this program will have
the same look & fill as the rest of one's desktop
