As things stand, installing Universe/admin/hardened-clients causes
telnet to be uninstalled. Sad to say, however, this breaks ubuntu-standard.
Two solutions to this problem occur to me, and I'll cheerfully file the
"bug" if that's appropriate; but I figure I should pass it by the
community first.
1) The easiest (I think): Change the dependency in ubuntu-standard to
"telnet | ssh-client".
2) The more-durable solution: Create a dependency package parallel to
ubuntu-standard, called ubuntu-hardened; make it an alternative to
ubuntu-standard where that package appears in the various "ubuntu-X"
composites.
