accessibility install question



On debian when a system gets a text environment installed on it first then gets gnome-orca installed on it, gnome and gnome-orca get installed but X does not get installed. If X is required to run gnome; gtk, and kde and isn't found already installed on a system when a gnome-orca install gets done why aren't X and X associated packages also made dependencies and installed? It can be more difficult for users with accessibility requirements to install the g.u.i. part of debian correctly especially without sighted assistance when trying the installation and then have the G.U.I. environment come up accessibly when finished. I suppose one could use gdm to start gnome and not use startx but you'd still have the issue for setting the correct display and blind users tend to run debian without monitors or mice connected unless they can get sighted assistance on a maintenance issue.
