Hm, this seems a bit awkward and needlessly complicated to me. "gnome-core" suggests to me something very minimal, in any case less than a full GNOME DE. "gnome" OTOH suggest exactly that, "a full GNOME DE", and not a set of additional apps not part of GNOME proper. Wouldn't it make sense and prevent confusion if "what GNOME calls the 'GNOME Desktop' release" were called gnome-desktop or gnome in Debian, and "a complete suite of applications" were called gnome-extended?
