Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: computer-janitor

To sum up things, a user with a perfectly working system may ask
Computer Janitor to do some cleanup. Then Computer Janitor will suggest
to remove some packages. If the user decides to follow this advice,
Computer Janitor will then warn him : "Hey ! Don't play fool you may
break everything"

It's unfair that Computer Janitor gives non-reliable advices and ask user to 
assume all responsibility.
I don't think that replacing a warning (« This may break your system, if you 
need them. ») by another (« Removing packages that are still needed can cause 
errors. ») can be called a bugfix (see bug#349336=

Computer Janitor should be secured or removed

Besides not that Computer Janitor doesn't provide a menu entry to report
bugs

Computer Janitor should be safe instead of relying on the user by displaying a
