Title:
  Moving of 'gdebi', 'synaptic', 'software-center' and 'software-
  properties-gtk' to 'desktop-recommends*'

Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  I wish we could move the following packages from 'desktop*' to
  'desktop-recommends*'

  * gdebi
  * software-center
  * software-properties-gtk
  * synaptic

  Reasoning:

  Many admins for business systems want to have these apps removed for
  safety and do not wish to play hide and seek on the menus; and also
  don't want to have to remove the 'ubuntu-desktop' package. It would be
  nice to shift the above apps to allow this to take place.
