Please change the following priorities as proposed earlier[1]:
# From Priority: important:
for p in \
groff-base man-db manpages less netcat-traditional traceroute \
; do
dak override ${p} . standard
done
dak override nfacct . optional
# From Priority: standard:
for p in \
aptitude aptitude-common at bc dc dnsutils bsd-mailx exim4 \
exim4-base exim4-config exim4-daemon-light procmail mutt \
ftp info texinfo install-info m4 mlocate nfs-common rpcbind \
patch time w3m whois \
; do
dak override ${p} . optional
done
dak override host oldlibs extra
I suggested to demote a few more packages from Priority: important,
namely cron, ifupdown, isc-dhcp-client, isc-dhcp-common, logrotate,
rsyslog and wget. I still would like to see them demoted eventually, but
here is my reason to keep them for now:
cron:
needed by logrotate
ifupdown, isc-dhcp-{client,common}:
d-i should still configure this by default. Maybe demote once we
switch to a different default network configuration tool, cf. [2].
logrotate:
should be kept as long as rsyslog is still important
rsyslog:
needed for persistent logging by default; still tempted to
demote this (plus logrotate and maybe cron then)...
A "standard" install would still include rsyslog after all.
wget:
useful to have a tool to grab files from a remote location; having
such a tool might be useful enough to keep it at important

I've preformed the override changes.
Pour some out for the homies. No more exim4 on the default install.
kthx,
