Is there a case for introducing that kind of metapackage as well?

The inverse of each existing metapackage, which everything depends on,
so it will do what you've just suggested, but it is more obvious
what package needs to be removed.

I guess there would be difficulties with packages that _can_ be used
with KDE but don't have to.
