Comment(by geofft):
See also [http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.debian.devel.general/164911
this debian-devel discussion], inspired by, I kid you not, "we see a
plethora of users in #debian who ask questions like: 'Why did apt remove
all my system??⸘!!!!one!one!eleven!'". There's discussion of both the
metapackages archive section and other things like making the aptitude
resolver hate removing metapackages.
