I think you recall wrong, then. The default USE flags have been set so
that the majority of systems will work properly without modifications,
not so that they're the minimal set.
I agree with that, since it's easy to configure them, but the problem is
that for most users, there is no default use flag at all. I'd say most
of our users run either gtk (and gnome) or qt (and kde), but not both.
Either you like gnome or kde ;) So we end up having qt, gtk, gtk2,
gnome, kde and arts in the default use flags, but nearly nobody wants to
use that, so I think it's better to have minimal use flags than
pseudo-standard ones.
