frustration with dselect automatic package selection

Hello debian folk,

When I install a system (especially servers), I tend to choose the task-sel
path and unselect everything, with the goal of getting the most minimal
installation as possible.  Then as I need packages I will apt-get them as
needing them.

I occasionally use dselect because it has some niceties which apt-get does not
have... however the firt time I run it, it has the "default package selection"
already set to install?!  Is there a way to tell dselect to ignore the default
package selection other than paging up and down and unselecting every item?

thanks,
donfede
