Agreed.

Indeed, and that is good to thet people don't miss them. They even miss
stuff like -gtk3, -kf6 (or when it was KDE -kde) or so...

And have libreoffice-l10n-* installed without libreoffice itself? How
much sense does that make?

Won't do that. The only tning I would be willing to do is to make it a
Recommends:. As with apts default that will be installed too, though,
which is what we usually want, but which probably won't help for your
wish as it will be pulled in anyway?
