That wouldn't be a bad idea at all. In the recent DPL interview:

http://www.newsforge.com/article.pl?sid=04/12/23/2023223 

Martin indicated that Debian now contains over 10,000 packages. That
is HUGE. I would think some culling has to happen at some point either
using bug counts or, as has been suggested, an analysis of popcon
results.

Or both.

Although zero package usage would also result in zero bug reports ;-)
