Diodon no longer required message?

[Mark Lawrence]

Good morning/afternoon/evening,

I understood that in 20.10 diodon is part of the officially supported 
packages and that clipit had been deprecated if not removed completely. 
So for the last few weeks instead of clipit I've been very happily using 
diodon which I actually prefer.

Having a tidy up of my system I noticed clipit so thought I don't need 
it, I'll remove it.  Hence:-

sudo apt-get remove clipit
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer 
required:
   diodon libayatana-appindicator3-1 libayatana-ido3-0.4-0 
libayatana-indicator3-7 libdiodon0 libxapian30 libxdo3 
libzeitgeist-2.0-0 xdotool
   zeitgeist-core
Use 'sudo apt autoremove' to remove them...

Now with the above I'm a tad concerned that in the future I might 
inadvertently use the autoremove option and not engage my MK I eyeballs 
properly and remove diodon.  What is the status of diodon given my 
remarks in the first paragraph above?  What should I be doing about this 
situation?
