A desktop environment should be a comparatively small subset of the overall
universe of packages (in particular, when compared to the applications
written for that desktop environment), so optimizing the distribution
update system for desktop environment updates doesn't make that much
sense. Desktop environment updates can be published as a group with the
current model already.
