The other tasks are packages (e.g. task-gnome-desktop), but
task-standard is special and does not exist as a package. Instead, it
contains all packages whose Priority field is "standard" or higher.

Indeed. The desktop environments available in wheezy (LXDE, XFCE, KDE,
GNOME) all seem to have power management and network configuration
functionality in at least their Recommends, task-desktop Recommends some
minimal networking and power management too, and systemd is able to
suspend on its own anyway, so I think task-laptop may have reached the
end of its useful life.
