Thanks. As Greg has already pointed out, it is actually desktop-base
which recommends plymouth-label. In the changelog I found the following
explanation:
,----
| desktop-base (10.0.1) unstable; urgency=medium
| [...]
| [ Jonathan Carter ]
| * Add plymouth-label as recommends (Closes: #927077)

Reading the log of bug #927077 I have my doubts that this was a good
idea, but I'm a layman when it comes to modern desktops.
Cheers,
Sven
