would anything depend on it without shipping a theme itself? is 
gtk2-engines-murrine the sort of thing a user would install manually?

i don't really understand what the logic is for an engine to recommend a theme,
it seems like it should be the other way around (which it is, murrine-themes 
depends on gtk2-engines-murrine).

since the engine itself is 300k installed, and an individual theme could be 
fairly small as well, 8m seems large, especially in a resource-constrained 
environment. but i guess it's only a recommends, so whatever; we disagree.
